Your Own Volunteer Role”. Then in the dialog box add that you are with CADSA to

everyone regardless of age.

They’re in the Ingham County Human Services complex on the north end of the building facing Jolly Road. Please enter at the Sam & Eva Eyde Community Kitchen entrance. This will lead directly into
the kitchen, where their staff will meet you.

you may park anywhere in the lot.

Dress: Please feel free to dress casual. Hair restraint will be required, baseball caps or
hats are acceptable. No open toe shoes for safety reasons.

Thank you for choosing to serve our community by donating your time in support of the
Tri-County Office on Aging Meals on Wheels program. These are some potential tasks:
• Filling “R” (regular) Boxes which contain foods such as grains, fruit, and milk to
make each “Hot” meal a complete meal to be eaten the day it is delivered
• Filling “WE” (frozen) bags which also contain a frozen meal tray, grains, fruit and
milk to round out each set of frozen meals into a complete meal that is delivered
ahead of a weekend

TCOA’s mission is to “promote and preserve the independence and dignity of the aging
population.” The work being performed today helps provide nourishment for the body
and a sense of food security for the mind of a person who lives in our community.
