Shoreline Drivers to Take Seniors to Appointments

Volunteer Services (VS) provides free personalized transportation services to frail low income elderly who can no longer drive, or use public/community transportation.

There are elderly in the community lacking the stable foundation and support system needed for sustainment. Our program is unique in that all services provided are free, with no membership fees or obligations.

By joining our core of Volunteer Drivers, you can pick rides that work with your schedule. VS offers mileage reimbursement, volunteers insurance (available for accidents and liability incidents), social gatherings with peers, and great support from program staff.

Volunteer Services, a program of Catholic Community Services, assists low-income elders and persons living with disabilities. Volunteers can provide assistance with light housecleaning, transportation, grocery shopping, home repair and yard care. With a little help from volunteers, clients can continue to live independently in their homes.

Due to the vulnerable population we serve, volunteers must complete an application form, pass a background check, provide driver's license and auto insurance, and attend an orientation and training. If providing transportation, must be 21 years of age and over. We provide mileage reimbursement and volunteers will need to pass a driver's abstract.
