A Volunteer Program that Provides Rides to Seniors for Medical Appointments and Shopping Neighbors Helping Neighbors To Remain Healthy and Independent When you call the first time a volunteer will complete an application with you. They will ask a few questions related to your health and accessibility issues, the best way to reach you, an emergency contact, and other important information. This will be kept in a secure file so that the next time you call they will be able to help you right away. Our office volunteer will find a compatible volunteer driver who can give you a ride. Please call 7 to 10 days before your medical appointment or shopping trip.
