Are you interested
in becoming a volunteer driver?
Drive a senior to a hot lunch program!
Transportation is one of the top
problems facing King County seniors.
More and more seniors are turning to the
Nutrition Transportation Program for
help. Unfortunately, we simply do not
have enough volunteer drivers to meet
their needs. We urgently need to recruit
more volunteers.
|
Volunteer Drivers: |
|
Provide rides using their own
vehicles. |
|
Choose the times, days, and areas
they wish to drive.
|
|
Receive reimbursement for
mileage and parking costs. |
|
Receive supplemental liability
insurance at no cost.
|
|
Do no
heavy lifting or bearing of weight.
|
Our program attracts a wonderful mix of
people of all ages and from all walks of
life...retirees, working individuals,
stay-at-home parents, snowbirds. Rain or
shine, they show up on doorsteps
throughout their communities to provide
a ride and a helping hand. What makes our program different from
buses, taxis, and ACCESS vans, is that
our drivers provide not only a ride but
act as an escort as well. Their
dedication and compassion have created a
program that's out of this world. Our
clients don't know what they would do
without their help.
