Assist seniors to their medical appointments - Kanawha & Putnam Counties

Save to Favorites

Looking for a volunteer opportunity built around your schedule? Volunteer to drive older adults to their medical appointments.

Medical transportation is the core service provided by Faith in Action of the Greater Kanawha Valley and the most needed. Volunteers drive care receivers to their medical/dental/eye appointments using their own vehicles. Scheduling is flexible with opportunities available Monday - Friday each week. Volunteers self-assign based on their own availability. All drivers establish their own criteria of time and geographical areas where they wish to drive. FIAGKV serves older adults in Kanawha and Putnam counties.

Family support and public transportation are not consistently available to older adults that no longer drive. Without transportation, older adults lose their independence and are denied access to basic needs such as getting to medical appointments, buying groceries, or accessing social services. As a volunteer, you can help fulfill a need and make a connection with the older adults in your community.

Through your service you can help Faith in Action of the Greater Kanawha Valley enhance the dignity and quality of life for all people in our community, neighbor to neighbor.
