Heroes Needed to Drive Low-Income Seniors and Those of Different Abilities!

Volunteer Services of Cowlitz/Wahkiakum Counties offers "free" transportation to medical and essential appointments for seniors and people with mobility limitations .

An hour or two of your time will make a big difference in someone's life!

Volunteers are paid a mileage reimbursement, for all miles driven. Volunteers need to be at least 25 years old, have a good driving record, current license and insurance, and a compassionate heart! Volunteer on YOUR time at your convenience.
