Transportation to a medical appointment

Are you looking for a flexible volunteer opportunity with a big impact? Community Caregivers of Greater Derry is in need of volunteer drivers to drive our homebound clients to their routine medical, dental, eye, and oncology appointments. Drivers choose the days, times, frequency, and distance that they want to drive. Most clients have very local appointments. Thanks to volunteer drivers, our homebound clients don't have to miss or postpone important medical appointments. And, driving is a great way to meet new people from your town. Sharing your time once a week, once every other week, or once a month makes a huge difference in our clients' ability to maintain their health and well-being. Our clients live in these NH towns: Derry, Londonderry, Windham, Hampstead, Danville, Sandown, and Chester. Clients are ambulatory and require little to no assistance.
