El a\u00f1o pasado, 10,450 voluntarios en el \u00e1rea metropolitana apoyaron a nuestros adultos mayores mediante tareas administrativas, preparaci\u00f3n de alimentos y, por supuesto, entrega de comidas. Estamos muy agradecidos por su dedicaci\u00f3n: Meals on Wheels no ser\u00eda posible sin ellos.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hemos escuchado muchas historias inspiradoras de conductores voluntarios que impactan las vidas de los destinatarios de las comidas. Adem\u00e1s de entregar alimentos nutritivos, estos voluntarios brindan compa\u00f1\u00eda, encuentran realizaci\u00f3n personal y, a veces, incluso salvan vidas. A continuaci\u00f3n se presentan algunas historias de los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\/es\/blog\/los-voluntarios-ayudan-a-prevenir-emergencias\/\">Sue Johnson y Lisa Fahey disfrutan entregando Meals on Wheels todas las semanas.<\/a> Gracias a su ruta semanal, cada uno de ellos ayud\u00f3 a las personas a las que entregaban a salir de situaciones potencialmente peligrosas el a\u00f1o pasado.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\/es\/blog\/cuando-una-visita-de-voluntariado-se-convierte-en-un-salvavidas\/\">Cuando Marsha, la receptora de la comida, se cay\u00f3, finalmente pudo volver a sentarse en su silla, pero estaba desorientada.<\/a> Afortunadamente, el voluntario de Meals on Wheels apareci\u00f3 como se esperaba y not\u00f3 que las cosas no parec\u00edan estar bien. Alert\u00f3 al director del programa, quien pudo ponerse en contacto con la familia de Marsha para que pudieran enviarle ayuda.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\/es\/blog\/voluntarios-ayudan-a-los-receptores-de-comidas-a-prepararse-para-la-tormenta-de-nieve\/\">El invierno pasado, los equipos de noticias acompa\u00f1aron a los voluntarios de Eastside Meals on Wheels, Tish Alexander y Shauna Brookings.<\/a> mientras entregaban comidas antes de una tormenta invernal. El d\u00fao de entrega de madre e hija es muy querido por los destinatarios de las comidas y es conocido por entregar flores adem\u00e1s de comidas.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\/es\/blog\/con-ayuda-de-un-amigo-voluntario-de-toda-la-vida-vuelve-a-la-carretera\/\">Jim Gubluff fue conductor de Meals on Wheels durante mucho tiempo en su vecindario de Hastings.<\/a> Cuando se someti\u00f3 a una cirug\u00eda card\u00edaca en 2020 que result\u00f3 en un traslado a un centro de vida asistida, le preocupaba tener que renunciar a lo que describi\u00f3 como el \u201cmejor trabajo del mundo\u201d. Result\u00f3 que no era necesario, ya que su compa\u00f1era voluntaria Fay Wallin lo ayud\u00f3 a regresar a su ruta.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\/es\/blog\/encontrar-comunidad-en-el-voluntariado\/\">Durante la pandemia, Cordelia Henderson sinti\u00f3 que algo faltaba en su vida.<\/a> No se sent\u00eda tan conectada con su comunidad como le gustar\u00eda. Luego comenz\u00f3 a trabajar como voluntaria en Meals on Wheels y encontr\u00f3 alegr\u00eda al conectarse con los destinatarios de las comidas. &quot;Ha sido una gran experiencia&quot;, dijo. \u201cMe gustar\u00eda que pudieras ver sus caras cuando les lleves la comida. Tengo algunas personas con las que trato de que sean las \u00faltimas porque s\u00e9 que les gusta hablar\u201d.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a1Estamos muy agradecidos por todos ustedes que brindan este importante servicio!
