Help a Senior Age in Place

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: SUNRISE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSISTANCE PROGRAM-SNAP

  • 1 person is interested

Transportation: Aimed at helping non-driving seniors to age in place in the homes they know and love, volunteer drivers help transport clients to medical and other needed appointments and errands. Volunteer drivers are able to accept assignments that work for their schedules and can view and choose the assignments they desire. Most transports are from the client's home in the Sunrise Neighborhood to a location not more than ten miles from that home. Volunteers can either drop them at the appointment and wait for them, or can drive the client to the appointment and go do errands until the client is ready to be picked up for the drive home.
