Meals on Wheels drivers needed
Meals on Wheels needs your help! As one of the last meal delivery programs in New Jersey to depend solely on volunteer drivers, new drivers are always needed. By committing approximately two hours—once a month—you can make a big difference in the lives of Hunterdon County’s homebound seniors by delivering hot, nutritious lunches.
For more information call Meals on Wheels at 908- 284-0735, visit their website at mowih.org, or email info@mowih.org. (Read more…)
