Sterling Rides (from Senior Citizens Inc) is a community at its best…neighbor helping neighbor! Each day, volunteer drivers transport older adults who can no longer drive to destinations within their community that will help the older adult meet their daily living needs. Trips can include:
- Medical appointments
- Shopping, including grocery stores and pharmacies
- Beauty appointments
- Veterinarian visits
Right now there are more than 50 Seniors needing transportation and not enough drivers.
If you have time to donate, you can help!
