Vous êtes le chef is a program that provides healthy, ready-to-cook meal kits that are delivered free of charge every Thursday to about 50 seniors in the Plateau-Mont-Royal borough.

Tasks:
- Go to the CCGP (basement of 4095 St-André Street) on Thursday at noon
- Pick up about ten meal bags (14-pound kraft bags)
- Go to the Mentana public housing complex, which is right next to our building (so a car is not required)
- Distribute the meal bags to the seniors (the apartment number and the names of the recipients are listed on a sheet we provide)
- Have a little chat with the recipients if you’d like :)

Schedule:
Thursdays from 12:00 p.m. to approximately 1:00 p.m. (You don’t have to be available every Thursday; we can rotate shifts with another delivery person.)

Desired skills and qualities:
Good physical condition (carrying multiple bags up and down several floors using an elevator)
Must be at least 16 years old

As a meal bag deliverer, you also help break the isolation of these vulnerable seniors living in public housing (HLM).

Without someone to deliver the meals, this program loses its purpose, which is why our organization needs you!

These boxes contain a nutritious recipe card and pre-portioned ingredients. Participants receive their boxes at home and can then cook the recipe. This program not only helps keep this population physically and cognitively active, but also promotes culinary exploration, healthy eating, and enjoyment for the participants!
