    Calling All Compassionate Drivers: Help Older Adults Thrive! (TN)

    Description: Are you a licensed, safe, and compassionate driver? We need volunteers like you to make a real difference in the lives of older adults in our community. As a volunteer driver, you’ll use your own vehicle to help seniors get to doctor appointments, hairdressers, church services, and other social outings.

    Not only will you be providing a crucial service, but you’ll also have the chance to build meaningful relationships and learn from the incredible stories and experiences of the seniors you drive. It's a rewarding role that offers the satisfaction of knowing you’re making a positive impact on someone’s life.

    Benefits:

    • Meet and connect with older adults in your community.
    • Enjoy the fulfillment of lending a helping hand.
    • Flexible volunteer hours to fit your schedule.
    • Make a difference by ensuring seniors have access to essential services and social activities.
    • Accumulate ride credits for your own future need, or a need of a loved-one

    Join us in helping older adults maintain their independence and thrive. Your time and effort can make a world of difference. Apply today to become a volunteer driver!
