RSVP of Dane County Drivers: It’s More Than Just a Ride! What is Driver Services? Driver Escort: RSVP’s Driver Escort Service responds to the transportation needs of Dane County’s older adult residents (60 years and older) who do not have access to other transportation resources such as bus, van, family and friends. The service is provided by volunteers from the local community/area who use their own vehicle to drive and escort passengers. Home Delivered Meal Drivers: We also have a continual need for Home Delivered Meal Drivers in many parts of rural Dane County. Volunteers work through their local Senior Center/Outreach Office. They pick up and deliver meals to older adults who are unable to cook their own meals. NEV Drivers and NEV Home Delivered Meal Drivers: We’ve also started a Pilot Program with the use of Neighborhood Electric Vehicles (NEVs) in three communities in Dane County, which includes Verona, Mt Horeb and De Forest. RSVP and/or the Senior Centers/Outreach Offices have purchased and/or leased the NEVs, designed to transport and deliver home delivered meals to older adults within their own community. The NEVs are stationed at the local Senior Centers/Outreach Offices and are designed to increase the quality of life to older adults, save valuable resources and help save the environment. For information on Driver Services programs, contact Gene Kundert, at 608 441-7896. Or, fill out the online request form which you will find here.
