    Description

    Volunteer to Drive a Neighbor

    Give a member a lift to a medical appointment, the grocery store, a Village event, or wherever they need to go — and often become a friendly, familiar face in their week.

    What you'll do:

    • Provide rides to members for medical appointments, errands, etc
    • Communicate with Village members and the office to confirm ride details
    • Join us for two volunteer driver team meetings per year. We’ll share best practices and celebrate the community we’ve built

    What you'll bring:

    • A valid driver's license and current auto insurance
    • A reliable vehicle
    • A clean, safe driving record for the past 3 years
    • A friendly, patient manner

    Time commitment: We prefer about 6 hours a month, but this is flexible to accommodate travel and other commitments.
