Westfair Rides

The purpose of WestFair Rides (WFR) is to help meet the transportation needs of older adults and vision-impaired adults of Westchester County, NY and western Fairfield County, CT by creating a network of sustainable, community-based, volunteer transportation services. Our goal is to promote lifelong safety, independence and mobility through mutually supportive, collaborative relationships with aging in place organizations, town recreation, public transportation, private livery, ParaTansit and other transportation providers and services in our region.

WFR maintains a Call Center for ride requests, volunteer support, and information/referral for ride options for older adults and vision-impaired adults in Westchester, NY and Fairfield, CT. Carefully vetted volunteers drive pre-registered clients to medical appointments across Westchester County.

In January 2013 the program began providing rides to older adults in the Sound Shore area of Westchester County. In October 2013 WestFair Rides began service in Northeast Westchester. Since then, the program has grown to include the entire county of Westchester. WestFair Rides also provides information and referral to other ride options in Westchester and Fairfield.

WestFair Rides is a 501(c)(3) not for profit organization, incorporated in New York State.
