The grant for this program, launched in the first quarter of 2011, has proven successful in addressing many of the transportation needs of Wellesley seniors who are unable to drive. It has provided the opportunity for building relationships among drivers and riders and for reducing potential isolation for our seniors. A second grant has helped to expand the program and provided ‘proof of concept’ for additional funding from other sources.
