Well, im not sure about Catholicism, but for christians it can really be anybody. In my church there are volunteers that sometimes do. Or people that work at the church. Most commonly, the pastor or priest gives the communion.

I'm not sure the complete guidelines for improving an answer, but I believe there is additional information needed here. First, Catholics are Christians, I believe the previous post meant to say Protestants.

So far as serving communion, anyone appointed by the pastor may hand out the elements (and this varies from congregation to congregation). However, in all denominations I know of, there is a part of the communion celebration that is a blessing over the elements. This can only be performed by someone who is ordained as a priest/pastor within the denomination.
