Agencies need volunteers with 'drive'

MORE VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES >>

PRESS RELEASE DATE: APRIL 3, 2007

Martin Volunteers is helping several agencies find drivers to assist children, senior citizens, cancer patients and public safety.

  • The nonprofit Hobe Sound Child Care Center has long been in need of a volunteer driver for its 30-passenger bus. Days and hours would be flexible, as the bus is needed primarily for field trips. Without a driver, the bus is sitting idle, hindering the center’s ability to provide enriching outside activities for its youngsters.

  • The American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery Program needs volunteer drivers to take patients to and from their treatments.

  • The Stuart Police Department needs volunteers to perform Citizens on Patrol duties.

  • The Council on Aging needs volunteers for its Meals on Wheels program. New, year-round helpers are vital to the program because many Meals of Wheels volunteers depart for the summer, but clients are still in need.

For details about these volunteer opportunities and more, please contact Anne Lalley, at (772) 220-4472, ext. 232, or e-mail coordinator@martinvolunteers.org.

The public may also learn about volunteer opportunities at “Tuesdays with Martin Volunteers,” each Tuesday at 10 a.m. at the United Way offices, 50 Kindred Street, Suite 207, Stuart.

Martin Volunteers, a program of United Way of Martin County, connects people with opportunities to serve in Martin County. Martin Volunteers also runs several well-known projects, such as the White Doves Holiday Project, the School Supplies for Students Drive and the Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP).
