Meals on Wheels: Help Make a Difference in West Seattle!

Hello West Seattle Community! Do you typically have 1-2 hours available Wednesday mornings, even just once or twice a month, and want to help a great cause? Meals on Wheels is in need of volunteers to deliver meals and a smile to seniors living in West Seattle.

I can’t speak from the perspective of a MoW volunteer, but *can* speak from the perspective of a client.

MoW delivered meals to me from August of last year, until May of this year when I had to initially pause, and then eventually end the service due to a hospitalization and lengthy care in a skilled nursing facility.

Throughout those months, the various volunteers who delivered were wonderful. They as well as the MoW/Sound Generations staff that I dealt with genuinely cared about how I was doing.

I believe this would be a great opportunity for anyone looking to volunteer, and meets the requirements, especially those folks with natural empathy.

As I mentioned above, I had to end my deliveries. That was due to the fact that it was determined while I was still in the SNF that my S. Delridge apartment of 10+ years was no longer sustainable for me due to limitations in mobility. So, I and now in an assisted living facility, sadly, outside of W.S./White Center, but I really do like it here.

Much love to MoW/SG…
