Soup Train seeking volunteers

February 2, 2016 7:00 a.m.

Soup Train, a local program focused on providing healthy meals to home-bound

seniors, is seeking volunteers for both a dessert team and a bread baking team. Each

volunteer team meets on a designated day once a month under the direction of a team

captain. Teams spend two to two and a half hours at a qualified food preparation

kitchen in Yulee preparing desserts or baking bread, muffins and other baked goods.

The food is packaged, frozen and delivered to the Nassau County Council on Aging for

distribution by volunteers to seniors awaiting placement with the Meals on Wheels

program or who need additional meals to supplement their subsidized meals.

If you're interested in volunteering for this important program to help home-bound

senior citizens, please call Mary Clemens at 904.206.4466 or email
