Meal delivery volunteers serve a critical role in our program and in the lives of our neighbors who are homebound due to their health status. Volunteers choose the day (Monday-Saturday) and frequency (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, substitute) for volunteering. Meals are picked up at the Ann Arbor Meals on Wheels office at 11:30am, and routes typically take 1-2 hours to complete.
Meal delivery volunteer requirements:
- Complete the full onboarding process for AAMOW volunteers
- Be 18 years of age or older
- Provide your own vehicle for delivering
- Maintain a valid driver's license (if driving) and vehicle insurance
- Commit to delivering at least ten times over the course of a year (preferably once/month, if possible)
- Maintain compliance with Michigan Medicine influenza vaccine policy
All volunteers must complete AAMOW’s full volunteer onboarding process, which consists of the following:
- Submit an online application
- Log into the volunteer portal and complete the steps outlined in the welcome email
- Attest to required statements
- Submit required vaccine verifications
- Attend AAMOW volunteer orientation
- Pass required background screenings for Michigan Medicine volunteers
The full onboarding process can typically be completed within 2-3 weeks depending on how quickly applicants are able to address each of the required tasks.
