Volunteer CarePool Drivers Needed!

Make a positive difference in someone’s day. Every month our, volunteers give approximately150 rides to our participants. Vivalon needs volunteer drivers to provide rides to ambulatory adults 65 and older going to medical appointments, the pharmacy, or grocery shopping.

This is an opportunity that offers a flexible schedule for all volunteers.

The ride lengths are about 2-3 hours for each round trip. Therefore, we ask for a minimum of one three-hour shift per week.

Requirements: A valid California Driver’s License, a clean DMV report, a reliable vehicle, and proof of auto insurance is needed.

Connection Works Wonders!
