By providing access to safe, reliable transportation through services like Uber, we help seniors attend important appointments, social engagements, and everyday errands, reinforcing their independence and preventing neglect.

We understand the importance of independence in later years. Our program is here to ensure that mobility challenges do not prevent seniors from living their lives to the fullest.
Who really benefits
This program is ideal for seniors who no longer drive but still wish to remain active and connected to their community.
Seniors who have retired from driving often miss out on spontaneous outings and regular social activities, which can lead to feelings of isolation and dependency. "Keep Going: Uber Me!" is crafted to empower these individuals by restoring their ability to move freely in their communities without relying on friends or family schedules.
Join us as we continue to support the mobility and independence of our senior community, ensuring every individual has the freedom to manage their life with dignity and ease.
