I will accept the supervision of the staff I am assigned to and I will discontinue my service if I am requested to do so by the organization. I agree to hold harmless and hereby indemnify Senior Meals Program, Inc. if through the course of my volunteer work I am injured, become ill and/or require medical treatment. I hereby waive any claim, known or unknown, against Senior Meals Program, Inc., its officers, directors and/or employees resulting from such circumstances.
