More older Americans are steering away from driving and need help with rides to medical appointments, shopping, and socializing. One of the many services STL Village* provides our members who do not drive is rides from volunteer drivers. WE ARE CURRENTLY SEEKING ADDITIONAL VOLUNTEER DRIVERS. Normal driving hours are 8-5 on weekdays. Most outings are 2 hours or less.
*STL Village is a member-based nonprofit organization for seniors who want to age in place while remaining socially connected and while receiving support from a network of volunteers.
