Put Kindness Into Action – Volunteer To Drive

Help your neighbors access essential healthcare services! TRA volunteers help older adults (age 60+) and adults with low vision (age 21+) maintain a good quality of life with dignity and compassion. We provide non-emergency medical rides in Westchester and Putnam Counties in New York and SW Fairfield County, Connecticut

Being A Volunteer Driver Is Rewarding

Imagine needing to go to the doctor but not being able to drive yourself there. Our riders may have low vision or a lack of
family and friends nearby to help them. Without transportation, a simple trip to the doctor can feel like an insurmountable
challenge. Your service means so much more than a ride.

Facilitate critical access to
medical appointments
for people who might otherwise not receive medical
care.

Experience the joys of helping neighbors and friends and also get to know several people with diverse backgrounds.

Become part of a dynamic network of volunteers! Sign up for rides when it’s convenient for you.

Additional Benefits To Volunteers

We aim for a positive volunteer experience. These are additional benefits available to all of our drivers:

Hear It From One Of Our Volunteers

“It was really love at first sight with TRA. You get to know whom
you’re driving — you hear about their kids, their grandkids.
I have warm feelings toward many of the people I drive. They
appreciate the service so much; it’s a wonderful feeling.”
