Meals on Wheels in Hunterdon celebrates the volunteers who keep our organization running, keep our communities safe, and provide services that otherwise would not exist. Volunteers demonstrate care and compassion through working together to bring about positive change. Volunteering reveals that the value of one individual act multiplied by the power of many enables us to thrive together. We encourage anyone looking for new opportunities to consider the value of volunteering and supporting local non-profits.

Being able to provide activities for the senior community, allowing opportunities for safe engagement and offering easily accessible programs and services, continues to be a significant priority for the Commissioner Board." For those seniors who would like to enjoy in-person events, a trip to Grounds for Sculpture has been planned, a stroll through county parks is offered, and the Wellness Lecture Series is also available. The Senior Center is offering Virtual Bingo through a cooperative effort with the Hunterdon Care Center and Foothill Acres.

Pre-registration is required for most classes, whether in-person or virtual, and all seniors must fill out an Acknowledgment of Health Requirement form, which can be downloaded from the Senior Center website. "The Senior Center staff continues to provide virtual options while the health crisis continues, allowing seniors who need to maintain social distancing measures, the ability to enjoy games, take fitness classes and stay connected while in their home," Van Doren stated. The Senior Center provides valuable information and connections for seniors. Caregiver Support Groups, State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) counseling, and Meals on Wheels are available.
