The Companion Program is a wonderful initiative that offers transportation assistance to older adults in the community.

This advance scheduling ensures that transportation can be arranged in a timely manner. Additionally, the program provides a considerate driver who is willing to wait for the passenger while they complete errands or attend appointments, adding a level of personalized service and care.
By accepting donations, the Companion Program is able to support older adults in maintaining their independence and staying connected with the community. This program truly offers a valuable service that enhances the quality of life for older adults by providing reliable and convenient transportation options.
