About the Position
Caledon Meals on Wheels Bolton, Caledon, Orangeville, at the senior's residence Caledon

Caledon Meals on Wheels needs Volunteer Visitors to visit seniors in Bolton, Caledon, and Orangeville areas:




  • Volunteers will visit with a client in client's home on a weekly basis (in certain circumstances, telephone chats may be an alternative way to visit)

  • Volunteers are asked to commit to ONE HOUR PER WEEK

  • A visit could include talking, social-recreational activities, gentle exercise, or lunch



If this is an opportunity you would enjoy, we would love to hear from you!



You are invited to apply through the CMOW website (see Social Media, below), or through Volunteer MBC, as a client with a profile within its Referral System. Clients can click the yellow box 'Apply Now!' to send your name/contact information to CMOW in respect of this volunteering opportunity. After you apply, as a precaution, please monitor your email (incl. 'Junk/Spam' folders) and leave space on your voicemail for communications from CMOW.



 

Volunteer Visiting is a great way to meet new people, other volunteers and clients, and make a difference in the lives of those that would benefit from a visit. It is an excellent introductory volunteering opportunity for those interested in a career related to caregiving for older adults.

  • You're friendly, engaging, conversational, plus you care about keeping seniors 'connected' to their local community
