Drivers for The Blind Needed  
The Vermont Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired (VABVI) has an
immediate URGENT need for volunteer drivers in and around the Ludlow area to get
people where they need to go. 
Clients of VABVI cannot drive which causes a serious problem for them,
forcing them to rely on others.  They need to put food on their tables, get
to vital medical appointments and run important errands.  The Volunteer
Pool in the Ludlow area is very low and they greatly need help so clients can
meet their daily living needs. 
The VABVI’s Volunteer Transportation Program provides free personalized
transportation services.  
Come and be a part of something wonderful by joining our team of
inspirational volunteers. Volunteer Drivers work on an “as needed” basis and are
free to accept or decline any trip to suit their own schedules.  Volunteer
as much or as little as you have time for. 
Drivers receive mileage reimbursements for the use of their cars.  If
you can help or would like more information, call toll free at
1-877-350-8840.   
VABVI is a non-profit organization providing a wide array of services to
Vermonters with vision loss.
