The Lubbock and Wolfforth communities work together to ensure the continued success of Lubbock Meals on Wheels’ mission. Your time and talents are needed and appreciated.

Volunteer Drivers
Volunteer drivers, both regular and substitute, are needed each weekday to deliver meals. You do not need to commit to a set schedule to volunteer for LMOW. Some drivers prefer to take the same route on the same day each week whereas others prefer to substitute when needed. For many of our clients, the LMOW volunteer may be the only person they see during the day. That daily human contact is just as important as the nutritious meal they are receiving. Each route takes approximately 1 hour to deliver. Most routes have 10 – 16 clients. A background check and one hour orientation is required for all delivery volunteers.
If you would like to try us out first, we can pair you up with one of our volunteers for a ‘ride-along’. Just give us a call at (806)792-7971.
Delivery volunteer opportunities are available from 10:45 am – Noon, Monday – Friday. Non-delivery volunteer opportunities are available throughout the day Monday through Friday.
If you would like to volunteer, give us a call at 806-792-7971, or
you may fill out our Volunteer Application Form online.
Other Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers are also needed for various administrative and kitchen duties, packing breakfast, washing coolers, packaging weekend meals, building and vehicle maintenance, and assisting with the Pet Program.
Groups and individuals are always needed to help with special projects, activities, and fundraising events.
Corporate/Organizational Volunteer Program
Currently, over 40 local businesses and organizations participate in our Corporate Volunteer Program. These companies allow their employees to deliver meals during their lunch hour. This allows employers to be civic minded without excessive loss of staff time. For convenience, the required orientation may be held at your place of business. If you would like more information about this program, please contact our office at 806-792-7971.
Our Corporate Delivery Volunteers are AWESOME!
