July 26, 2024 (San Diego) -- Jewish Family Service of San Diego’s On the Go program is proud to be the largest senior transportation program in the county. This vital service provides rides for seniors who are unable to drive, with a significant number of clients residing in East County. Volunteers act as a free rideshare service, using their own cars to drive seniors to the grocery store, medical appointments, and even to the veterinarian with their pets.

Due to unprecedented demand over the past year, there is a critical need for more volunteers to continue offering this unique service to older adults. If you're interested in volunteering your time to drive a senior to the grocery store, a medical appointment, the veterinarian, visiting family and friends, or other errands, click here.
