Transportation is the most often cited unmet need. Many seniors and adults with disabilities can not transport themselves to appointments due to location or financial constraints. This program provides volunteer services for escorted and door-through-door transportation for medical appointments, prescription pick-up and grocery shopping.

The Center for Volunteer Caregiving is seeking individuals that can escort and transport seniors and adults with disablilities of Wake County. All riders will be able to transfer in/out of your vehicle. Transportation is done in your own vehicle and can take up to 3 hours per appointmnet. You select the appointment that works best with your schedule.

About The Center for Volunteer Caregiving

Location:

1150 SE Maynard RD, Suite 210, Cary, NC 27511, US

Mission Statement

The Center for Volunteer Caregiving is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to engage the diverse Wake County community by providing volunteer service solutions in an inclusive and welcoming environment to improve the lives of seniors, family caregivers and adults with disabilities.

Description

The Center recruits volunteers to help seniors (age 60+) and adults with disabilities, living at home, with tasks they can no longer do for themselves. Assistance includes respite care to family caregivers, friendly visits to the homebound, transportation for essential needs (e.g. medical appointments, food), and light chore services. We do not provide personal care or services of a medical or healthcare nature.

All volunteers undergo a criminal background check and must attend a virtual orientation session. Please visit our website: www.volunteercaregiving.org

In addition to individual volunteers, we welcome businesses and faith organizations to contact us about how we can create satisfying volunteer opportunities for their employees and members.
