Our Staff

Meals-on-Wheels has three staff members and more than 120 volunteers who donate their time to help others. Executive Director Susanna Sussman joined Meals-on-Wheels of White Plains in August 2006, replacing Jeremy Kasman, who held the position for six years. She earned a Bachelors from Washington University in St. Louis and a Masters in Public Administration from NYU's Wagner School.

More than 120 volunteers help to deliver meals for Meals-on-Wheels of White Plains. They include retirees, students, parents, and employees of local companies. What they have in common is a "driving" desire to help others and the ability to give an hour and a half of their time on a weekday or occasional Saturday. If you would like to volunteer, please call us at (914) 946-6878.
