Transportation is an essential need among older adults and the most requested service we receive. Many seniors in our community are no longer driving but have doctor appointments to get to and errands to run. We are here to assist these individuals, and we do so by making volunteering to drive easy!
As a volunteer driver, you assign yourself to requested trips that fit well with your schedule and transport the consumer in your own vehicle! Most transportation requests are for medical appointments, but we also accept transports to grocery stores, community centers, banks, hair salons, shopping centers, and social events.
If you would like more information about volunteering with Family Service Rochester, please reach out to a member of our Senior Independence Team at 507-287-2010 or volunteers@familyservicerochester.org.
Thank you!
