Senior Ride Nashville, a transportation alternative and assisted ride service for seniors. Senior Ride Nashville will be extending its service area to include the Donelson and Hermitage communities in July, and we wanted to share this information with you to pass along to your residents.

Senior Ride Nashville pairs volunteer drivers with local seniors to provide them with transportation to appointments, grocery stores, social gatherings or other activities. In anticipation of the official launch in your area, Senior Ride is hosting an information session at FiftyForward Donelson Station on Monday, June 25, at 10 a.m. The event is free and open to community members interested in learning more or becoming drivers or riders.

Members of your community will greatly benefit from the service, and we hope that you will help us spread the word in an effort to recruit drivers and facilitate rides for Donelson and Hermitage seniors. So far, Senior Ride has provided over 900 trips, and the number is expected to hit 1,000 within the next two weeks.
