Volunteer drivers needed to help area seniors


March 5, 2013 · 1:50 PM

Senior Services’ Volunteer Transportation provides vital rides for Enumclaw seniors. Using their own vehicles, volunteer drivers help older adults maintain their independence by taking them to necessary medical appointments. Clients appreciate their improved access to medical care, meaningful interactions with caring volunteers, and increased peace of mind.

The program does not have enough drivers to meet the demand for transportation from older residents of Enumclaw and the surrounding communities.

Anyone willing to volunteer is urged to call 206-748-7588, email Hilary at hilaryc@seniorservices.org, read the blog at www.volunteertransportation.blogspot.com, or visit www.seniorservices.org/transportation.
