Older adults in our N and NE Portland community need short rides to get around.
With YOUR HELP older adults can continue to live in their homes and/or stay active in the community.
You can volunteer once a month or several times a week. It may only take 20 minutes, but it makes a huge difference. We provide the training and do all the coordinating - you just let us know when you are available, and we let you know who needs a ride and to where! You can use your car our one of our vehicles.
It's a FLEXIBLE, IMPORTANT and MEANINGFUL way to positively impact the life of someone in need of a vital ride.
