JustRides

Are you interested in volunteering with CaringMatters but have limited availability? This is a great opportunity for you!

Volunteers will be trained on how to support CaringMatters patients who are in need of transportation to and from doctor's appointments, medical treatments, social service appointments and grocery/pharmacy trips. Transportation is a major need for those living with cancer and other serious illness, especially for those who must attend multiple treatments or doctor appointments per week. CaringMatters seeks to alleviate the stress and financial burden of finding transportation for our patients and their families. JustRides volunteers do this by providing rides to supplement transportation already being provided by family members, friends and other community resources. At this time, JustRides is only supporting active CaringMatters patients with transportation.

Volunteer requirements:

• Attend half-day training at CaringMatters
• Commit to 2-4 rides per month
• Volunteers must have their own car
• Must be 21yo+
• Agree to a criminal and MVA background check
