Volunteers in Motion provides transportation for individuals who are unable to use other Space Coast Area Transit services. The Volunteers in Motion program offers transportation to locations such as medical facilities, pharmacies and grocery stores. Since its inception, Volunteers in Motion has assisted thousands of individuals who would otherwise be unable to live at home independently. Program volunteers are provided with training classes, state-of-the-art vehicles, gas and insurance, uniform shirts, and cell phones during volunteering hours. This innovative program is supported by an amazing group of volunteers who serve because they care. Unfortunately, the demand for services is higher than what the current program can support. A few hours of your support once or twice a week (or more) can make an incredible difference. The program operates on weekdays, Monday through Friday. If you enjoy working with people of all ages and making a difference in their life, this is a great volunteer position for you! All support is welcome and appreciated, especially since the demand for service is high, and new volunteers are essential to help us keep up with our growing needs.”
