Your donation supports the JCA Transportation programs in so many ways:

  • $25 provides a background check of a volunteer driver who takes older adults to doctors’ appointments, grocery shopping, and errands.
  • $50 covers a ride subsidy for a senior needing to use paid transport to a doctor’s appointment, church, or other commitment.
  • $150 covers one ride for a vulnerable older adult who requires an escort to take them from their home to a medical appointment, wait with them, and then drive them home.
