Every day, across the country, neighbors are helping neighbors.
A volunteer driver uses their own car to take someone to a doctor’s appointment. A ride to the pharmacy. A trip to the grocery store.
These moments may seem small, but together they form a powerful, grassroots response to a growing national need.
At the same time, millions of older Americans are stranded without transportation. The answer is already out there. It is sitting in driveways across the country.
America’s Volunteer Driver Center (AVDC) is bringing these two realities together. As the national center of the public information campaign for volunteer driver recruitment, AVDC is working to connect willing volunteer drivers with thousands of nonprofit transportation providers nationwide.
On April 22, ITNAmerica will formally introduce this effort during the Philanthropic Collaborative for Volunteer Transportation. This event brings together leaders from philanthropy, healthcare, business, and government, along with the people doing this work every day, to grow a national effort rooted in local action.
If this work matters to you, we hope you will pull up a chair and join us.
