It's easy to get started!

1. Gather a group of friends, co-workers or family members interested in delivering Evening Meals on Wheels.
                       
    Adopt-a-Route you choose:
         - Day of the week
         - Pick up location
         - Delivery area
       
    For example, if 6 people are in your group and you deliver every Wednesday.
    Each member of your group will deliver meals once every 6 weeks.
    It's that simple!  

2. Attend Volunteer Orientation & Evening Meals on Wheels Training  

     - Both session are held weekly at Independent Living.
       At least one member of your group needs to attend a training session.  
     - Independent Living staff is happy to bring the training to you at your home or office!
       Contact us for more information.

3. Sign up for a route that is convenient to work or home

     - There are 7 pick-up locations throughout Madison and surrounding areas
     - Choose one that's best for you!

4. Deliver your first route!
          
    - Meals are delivered Monday - Friday evening between 4:30 and 6:00 p.m.
      Routes generally take about an hour to complete.
    - Our volunteer driver is often the only person these older adults or people with disabilities see that day.
