Volunteers needed to provide rides for Shoreline/Lake Forest Park seniors

Senior Services' Volunteer Transportation provides vital rides for Shoreline/Lake Forest Park seniors. Using their own vehicles, volunteer drivers help older adults maintain their independence by taking them to necessary medical appointments. Clients appreciate their improved access to medical care, meaningful interactions with caring volunteers, and increased peace of mind.  Unfortunately, the program does not have enough drivers to meet the demand for transportation from older residents of the Shoreline/Lake Forest Park and surrounding communities. For those interested in helping out, call (206)748-7588, email Hilary at hilaryc@seniorservices.org, or visit www.seniorservices.org/transportation.  We also have a blog: www.volunteertransportation.blogspot.com!
