At Drive Happiness, a ride is more than just getting from one place to another. 🙂🚗 Our volunteers don't just provide transportation-they offer companionship and become a vital connection for those who may be homebound. These rides are not only essential for seniors to attend medical appointments, but they also help them stay engaged with their community, visit loved ones, participate in activities, and more. This support is crucial for ageing in place, a goal many seniors cherish. We're proud of our incredible team of volunteer drivers and are always eager to welcome new members! Are you or someone you know interested in joining our ride program? To apply and learn more about us, visit our website at www.drivehappiness.ca or reach out directly at 780-424-5438.
