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.
