ORGANIZATION: Mobility Matters

What is Rotary?

Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change - across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves. For more than 110 years, Rotary’s people of action have used their passion, energy, and intelligence to take action on sustainable projects.

Diablo View Rotary

While we appreciate the international aspect of Rotary, our club’s members primarily services our local community. We organize outings within our community to clean the parks and other shared spaces, sort food at local food banks, volunteer at Lindsay Wildlife museum, and anything else that our members can do to make our community better. We build lifelong friendships based on the shared vision of community service.

Come to a Meeting

We are a "cocktail hour" club. We meet weekly on Tuesdays at 5:45 pm in downtown Walnut Creek, at Maria Maria. Our meetings are fun Happy Hours. Our meetings begins with some time to mingle and get some dinner, then we invite a speaker to come and talk to us. Speakers range from local charities informing us on how they help to serve the community, to veterans sharing their stories, and local business owners explaining what they do and how they started.

Interested in coming to a meeting? Please come and check us out. This is a great place to connect with local professionals, make friends with people that live in the area, and most important of all fill that gap in your Tuesday night schedule. Be sure to check our calendar at http://diabloviewrotary.org/meetings-and-events/meetings

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide free door-through-door transportation to seniors and veterans who need escorted rides with compassionate volunteer drivers in Contra Costa County. Our goal is to give seniors and veterans the ability and dignity to age in place with transportation and referral resources.

Description

Mobility Matters offers two volunteer ride sharing programs: Rides for Seniors and Rides 4 Veterans. The Rides for Seniors program specializes in transporting ambulatory seniors (age 60 and older) in Contra Costa County who are trying to age in place rather than become institutionalized. The Rides 4 Veteran's Program transports veterans that are any age that are disabled in Contra Costa County. The Rides for Seniors and the Rides for Veterans programs offers free, one-on-one, door-through-door rides provided by screened and trained volunteer drivers. These rides are primarily for the purpose of obtaining medical care, groceries, and other basic necessities.
