For over two years, Tammy has been delivering meals to An H., the last stop on her route. But as any Nourish Meals on Wheels volunteer will tell you, these visits are about so much more than just food.
Each time she arrives, An greets her with humor, wisdom, and advice—little moments that brighten her day. But today was extra special.
“He confided in me that he wore a special outfit for my visit! When I asked if I could take a picture, he immediately struck a pose next to my car like he was in GQ!”
That’s the kind of connection Nourish Meals on Wheels creates. For many clients, these visits are something to look forward to—a friendly face, a conversation, a moment of joy. And for volunteers like Tammy, it’s a reminder of how much love and warmth can be exchanged in just a few minutes.
“It warms my heart that my clients look forward to my visit and sometimes even prepare their outfit! The amazing affection I have for them brings joy to my life.”
Volunteering isn’t just about giving—it’s about the happiness, purpose, and connection you receive in return.
Are you ready to bring joy to someone’s day (and maybe get a GQ-worthy pose in return)?
Make a difference in your community—one meal, one visit, one smile at a time.
