Volunteer Drivers
Give a lift. Get a lift.
When you become a volunteer driver through your regional public transportation provider, you provide cost effective transportation to community members in need of a ride. Volunteer drivers provide a vital connection for older adults, individuals with disabilities, and Medicaid recipients who need a lift to medical appointments and social service providers. If you have access to a reliable vehicle, enjoy driving and meeting people, become a volunteer driver!
How it works:
As a volunteer driver, you decide how often you can offer transportation. Most trips are centered on medical needs, providing access to appointments like dialysis, radiation treatment, physical therapy and more. You may also provide rides to senior centers, affordable food locations, counseling, prevention treatment, or various human services programs.
While most appointments are local, others can be as far as Dartmouth or Boston. You can determine the range of transportation service you are able to provide. Drivers are offered reimbursement at the standard IRS mileage rate for each trip.
