Did you see the recent news report about Meals on Wheels? They are experiencing a shortage of volunteers for the Meals on Wheels program. A number of years ago I worked for the summer at Blair Senior Services. One of the first things I did was go experience the Meals on Wheels delivery. It was really neat way to help people while getting to know some very tremendous individuals in the County. One of the things I enjoyed most about my job that summer was being around the stories and knowledge of some of Blair County's seniors.
Blair Senior Services (located in downtown Altoona) is designated as the Area Agency on Aging for Blair County. They handle numerous services for senior citizens and for the community, of which Meals on Wheels is one. To find out how you could volunteer with the program, call Lois Link at 946-1235. You can be involved daily, weekly, monthly or whatever suits best! They need dozens of additional volunteers, so consider calling today!
