Do you have an itch to explore America? Do you have a desire to help survivors of abuse? This might be the volunteer opportunity you've been looking for!
Here at Families to Freedom we are dependant on volunteer drivers to carry out our mission statement to "Transport victims of domestic abuse to safety." We urgently need amazing people like you to drive victims to safety.
We receive calls from victims every day, but we are unable to meet every need without your help!
Volunteer drivers pick up victims at a safe public location and bring them a family or friend home far away or to a domestic violence shelter in Houston and surrounding areas(like Beaumont, Lufkin, and Jasper).

Mission Statement
Our mission is transport victims of domestic abuse to safety.
Description
Families to Freedom provides free transportation services to victims and their children who have experienced domestic abuse. We make it possible for victims and new survivors to get far away from abusive relationships. Our life-saving services include car rides to domestic violence shelters across the region, road trips to family homes in other states, multi-state bus tickets, and fuel assistance to relocate far away. We serve victims and new survivors across North Texas, East Texas, and the Gulf Coast area. We drive over 900 victims and children each year between two offices located in Dallas and Houston. We rely on the generous support of the community to continue providing these services at no cost to the victims who call us.
