Support Summit Seniors this Holiday Season

Summit, NJ – This holiday season, the Summit DCP is urging all Summit residents to “Get on Board” and support our senior population by donating to Big Wheel, operated by Senior Connections, Inc.

Big Wheel has provided free transportation for Summit’s seniors five days a week, taking them to and from local establishments for more than a quarter century. Annually, it takes approximately $50,000 to keep the 22-passanger bus in service, covering everything from insurance and salaries to repairs and maintenance.

This 501c3 Corporation is funded in part by donations and grants from corporate agencies, the City of Summit, and also by residents like you.

Now more than ever, Big Wheel is dependent upon the support of Summit residents to help maintain this vital service for our senior population.

Your donation will help keep Summit’s seniors connected with the greater community, provide them with a safe and reliable method of transportation, as well as provide them the chance to live independently longer within the community.

Please be on the lookout for your Big Wheel mailer, providing additional information on this free service as well as instructions on how to donate. Donations are also accepted online through Community Pass. Simply visit summitcommunityprograms.com/bigwheel, click “Donate.” Once re-directed to Community Pass, click “Senior Connections Bus.”

Learn more about the seniors who are already staying connected to the community with Big Wheel at summitcommunityprograms.com/bigwheel. To request a schedule, call 908-277-2932.
