Our Team

My name is Rick and I joined Community Reach in 2002 as a volunteer for their charity bingo. I became interested in their Volunteer Driver program TLC since I enjoy driving and helping people in our community.

They provided all the training I required and I get to travel to new destinations for medical appointments as well as I get to take people to local spots for things like shopping or adult day programs. The result is I have gained a sense of community involvement.

“Being a volunteer driver is a way for me to contribute to the well-being of our community. I consistently encounter gratefulness from the patrons of the Community Reach program and I am grateful in return for the opportunity to know more people in our community.

Volunteering is a part of the life of my extended family. My parents actively contributed to our community through years of volunteering and many of my siblings volunteer in their communities.

Volunteering is a meaningful way to show how thankful I am to be able to support others. A big shout out to the staff and volunteers who tirelessly and graciously organize everything at Community Reach to make the rides happen!”

“In the past 3 years or more, I have had the pleasure of volunteering with Community Reach, which began with wanting to give back to the community in my retirement years. I began as a “travel companion” for people with long-distance and in-town medical rides. It was very rewarding as the trust and gratitude shown by our riders grew with every trip. Soon I was also assisting office staff with clerical work.

Community Reach offers a wonderful non-profit service to the community and the staff and drivers are an amazing group to work with. I’m truly pleased to be part of this vital operation.”
