The East Madison Monona Coalition of the Aging provides nutritious meals for seniors in the community. EMMCA is looking for one or two volunteers to help with our EMMCA Senior Dining Site each Tuesday at Messiah Lutheran Church on Cottage Grove Road. Volunteers would work between 11am-1pm.

The two volunteer tasks are:

1. Staff the check in table: welcome and sign in participants; hand out newsletters, menus and other information; assist with counting donation money after the meal.
2. Help set up, serve and clean up the meal: assist with cleaning and setting up tables prior to the meal; serving the meal; cleaning up and putting everything away afterwards.

One person could do both jobs, or it could be split between two people. A free lunch is included for all volunteers.

Questions?  Please contact Sonya Lindquist, Executive Director at EMMCA at (608) 223-3100. 

Retired and Senior Volunteer Program's recruitment and placement of volunteers in Dane County schools is especially important at this time of year as the schools prepare for their second semester needs for tutors and other classroom support. 

Seniors and Veterans of all ages really depend on our drivers to get them to appointments and deliver them meals to help them maintain their independence so the need for drivers is both urgent and ongoing. 

In addition, because the potential pool of senior volunteers is rapidly expanding, RSVP is an important resource for other Dane County nonprofits who are seeking volunteers for specific jobs in their organizations.

Volunteers are a huge source of support to people of all ages in our community!
