ORGANIZATION: Cultivate

Volunteer for Medical Mobility
Get in the Driver's seat!

How It Works

As a volunteer driver, you will pick up a client from their home, bring them to their appointment, and then you may either wait or return to take the client home afterwards, or another driver will return them. These ongoing, flexible volunteer positions are one of the most rewarding ways to work directly with elders in our community and make a big difference in their lives.

Volunteers use their own vehicles are eligible for mileage reimbursement at .35 cents per mile in Boulder county and .45 cents per mile if you go out of Boulder County.

Help a Veteran!

Drivers are needed to take Veterans to their appointments at VA hospitals. In addition to mileage reimbursement, we are able to offer volunteers $40 RT to Cheyenne and $25 RT to Front Range destinations. Please inquiry that you want to help our Veterans!

Mission Statement

Cultivate helps seniors flourish through active engagement with their community.

Description

For 50 years, Cultivate has dedicated itself to helping seniors flourish through active engagement with their communities. Volunteers can work directly with seniors or in other program support positions. Some people volunteer for one day; others sign on for years. Volunteers are always welcome! Our volunteers support our senior neighbors through the following programs:

Carry-Out Caravan - Grocery order-taking, shopping and delivery
Fix-It - Minor home repair including grab bar installation
VetsGo - Transportation for senior veterans and their senior family members to their medical appointments
SnowBusters - Snow shoveling in winter to help prevent falls and municipal citations
YardBusters - Yard cleanup to help prevent falls and municipal citations.

By providing services at no cost, Cultivate helps seniors remain independent, yet connected, within their communities. Beyond the medical rides, groceries or other services, Cultivate volunteers provide something even more transformational - reprieve from isolation. Both clients and volunteers benefit from the socialization with one another, and family members enjoy peace of mind, knowing that their loved ones are receiving much needed services from caring members of the community.
