Client Meal Delivery volunteers will ride along with a staff driver and support the home-delivering of meals to our clients.
Our volunteers help chop and peel veggies, pack out burgers, season chicken, and more! If you like to cook, this is the job for you.
Meal Packaging involves packaging our nutritionally designed menus into bags for delivery to our clients.
Walking delivery volunteers take an hour or two during lunch time on Wednesdays and Fridays to deliver in the neighborhood.
Office tasks range from listening and responding to client voicemails, entering client information into our client database, and conducting telephone interviews with clients for service enrollment.

Without the help of our amazing volunteers — more than 16,000+ strong every year — we simply would not be able to cook and deliver 8,000 delicious and nutritious meals each weekday to our neighbors in need. Outnumbering our staff by a ratio of more than 100 to 1, volunteers work in the kitchen, deliver meals and work in meal packaging, work in our office and help out with special events.We have opportunities for corporate, community, and student groups, as well as individuals. View all of our opportunities here. For more information, you can contact our Volunteer Office at volunteer@glwd.org or 212.294.8158.
Our most-needed shift, you'll ride as passenger in our delivery van and assist our staff in delivering meals to our clients.
