TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A Tampa volunteer is committed to helping the city’s homebound, disabled and elderly.
Veronica Sanchez has been delivering food for Meals on Wheels for two decades. Every Thursday, she loads food into her car and drives one of the 112 local routes. The organization prepares 2,000 meals every day.
The 20-year volunteer takes pride in helping community members stay strong, healthy and independent.
“It’s the difference we make in the lives of seniors and the homebound, people in our community who are some of the most vulnerable and also, who helped build this community. To be able to give to them in their time of need, for me, is very important,” explains Sanchez.
Meals on Wheels is constantly recruiting new volunteers to help accomplish their mission. Information about volunteering is available on the organization’s website: Meals On Wheels of Tampa (mowtampa.org)
