| Volunteer Position Description |
We are currently looking for volunteers with access to a car to help transport seniors to necessary medical appointments.
Many of our members don't have access to a car, can't afford a taxi, or have mobility issues. The volunteers would have to have flexible availability and be able to take cases at fairly short notice, as we may only receive confirmation of the appointment a week or so before it. |
