AgeSpan is seeking drivers and on-call volunteers to support our home-delivered meals program particularly in the areas of Dracut and Greater Haverhill. Volunteers are needed immediately. This is a wonderful way to give back and help older adults.

Our volunteer drivers deliver a daily nutritious meal as well as a friendly face and smile. The role requires a three-hour commitment, a valid driver’s license, and a background check.

AgeSpan provides a stipend and free training for adults aged 18 and over. This is a fantastic opportunity for retirees, couples, friends, and family members to help out adults age 60+ and people with disabilities.
