Meals on Wheels Proserpine is calling for community support, with an urgent need for volunteers to help deliver and cook meals and help those in need.
At the organisation’s Annual General Meeting held in late September the ongoing shortage of volunteers was highlighted as a major concern.
Meals on Wheels Proserpine is currently seeking kitchen volunteers, delivery drivers, and people interested in helping to organise fundraising initiatives.
The service provides nutritious meals and social connection for people across the community, including seniors and those with limited mobility.
Meals on Wheels is a volunteer based kitchen that provide delivered affordable, nutritious meals to seniors, people with disabilities, and others who are unable to cook for themselves.
Each delivery is made by volunteers who not only bring a meal but also provide a friendly check-in and social connection. Funded through a combination of government support and client contributions, the program helps people maintain their independence and continue living comfortably in their own homes.
Anyone able to assist in any capacity is encouraged to contact Helen on 4945 1733.
