Why should you volunteer for this opportunity?
As a KARE Driver Volunteer, you will give people who might not otherwise be able to attend appointments due to transportation barriers, the peace of mind knowing they will make it to their appointments safely and affordably.
More than just transportation, you may be the highlight of someone's day as being someone to talk to during the drive, alleviating loneliness, and perhaps developing new friendships. This truly is a rewarding service and invaluable in our community.
