About this Opportunity
Join our villages as a volunteer Driver! Villages of San Mateo County provides opportunities for connection and services for our members (older adults) so they can continue to live independently and age gracefully. Among our services - we provide members with rides to appointments and to events. Drivers make it possible for seniors to live independently when they no longer are in a position to drive themselves to places such as to medical and dental appointments, grocery shopping, church, banks, nail and hair salons, social activities. Members request rides several days in advance via phone calls to Village Office, stating starting time, location, and ending time. They may request one-way or round trip rides. Volunteers check the online database and sign up to provide either a one-way or a round-trip ride, as their schedule permits. Members may use a cane or walker to assist them getting to and from the driver's car. Driver must be able and willing to collapse walkers and place them temporarily in their car. We also have other opportunities for connection and providing services other than driving. We would love to hear from you!
Schedule is very flexible.. you sign up for providing service when you have the time.
