Can you imagine if you were not able to access the places you needed to go due to fatigue, chronic illness, or disability? What if you knew that you could change someone's life by providing them with transportation once or twice a month? Through becoming a volunteer driver with Volunteer Services, you can! We have clients around the downtown, Belltown, Central District, S. Seattle and Capitol Hill areas in need of rides to medical appointments and deliveries of groceries and prescriptions.

Background on Volunteer Services:

Volunteer Services, a program of Catholic Community Services, assists low-income elders and persons living with disabilities. Volunteers can provide assistance with light housecleaning, transportation, grocery shopping, home repair, and yard care. With a little help from volunteers, clients can continue to live independently in their homes.

Due to the vulnerable population we serve, volunteers must complete an application form, pass a Washington State Patrol check and attend an orientation.
