    Description

    Transportation  Volunteer

    Serving Our Seniors (formerly known as Mid-Cities Care Corp) provides transportation for senior citizens to scheduled routine medical appointments and "quality of life" rides (grocery shopping, banking, trips to the pharmacy, etc.) within Northeast Tarrant County cities of: Bedford, Colleyville, Euless, Grapevine, Haltom City, Hurst, Keller, N Richland Hills, Richland Hills, Southlake and Watauga.

    Transportation is provided by caring volunteers who provide their vehicle, time, and gas to transport senior neighbors.

    A typical volunteer drive includes picking the client up at their residence, driving the client to the appointment, staying with them the duration of the appointment, and returning the client to their residence. An individual with 3 hours a month to spare is considered a potential volunteer candidate for SOS. The average time for a volunteer drive is 3 hours. Our clients schedule all their appointments Monday through Friday between the hours of 9a.m. and 3p.m. Volunteers have the flexibility to accept or decline drive opportunities based upon their personal schedules.

    All volunteers must pass a criminal background check and have a clean driving record.

    SOS does not income qualify clients and never charges for services because we recognize that most of our clients are on limited income.
