Bring meals to elderly

BALLSTON SPA -- The Saratoga County Office for the Aging needs drivers for its home-delivered meal program.

The high cost of gas has driven away volunteers, but more than 700 homebound elderly residents still need lunches delivered and someone to check on their well-being.

Meals are ready to be picked up at 10:30 a.m. at various sites in the county and delivery takes 30 to 90 minutes depending on the route.

Volunteer options vary from every week to every month on a regular or substitute basis.

Call the Office for the Aging at 884-4100 or 363-4020 to learn more.
