What volunteer drivers do ….
As a volunteer driver with Drive A Senior ATX you will have the opportunity to provide door-to-door rides for local seniors in need. Drivers use their own vehicles and choose which rides they would like to take. Our volunteer opportunities are quite flexible depending on your schedule with choices from several times a week to only once or twice a month. Before too long you will have created new and meaningful friendships with your passengers that will last a life time.
