United Way’s Volunteer Connection

Organization: Life Enrichment Center

Description of role: Give the gift of a lift. Rides4Seniors, a program coordinated by the Life Enrichment Center, serves seniors 55 and older living in East Dayton. The program matches volunteer drivers with seniors in need of safe and reliable transportation to places such as medical and social service appointments, senior centers and community events. Rides4Seniors is currently seeking volunteer drivers. Volunteers will use their personal vehicles and must undergo a thorough screening and training process including background check, drug test and health screening, at no cost to the volunteer. This flexible opportunity allows volunteers to give as much or as little time as they are able and to choose when and where they drive. Volunteers must be at least 21 with a valid driver's license and auto insurance
