Now in its 14th year, the Lamorinda Spirit Van Program provides rides for Lafayette, Moraga, and Orinda older adults Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. thanks to volunteers, drivers and dispatchers who serve the community.
Thanks to community donations and grants, Lamorinda residents aged 60 and over who need transportation to appointments, errands, shopping, classes, social visits, and/or lunch at the C.C. Café/Walnut Creek Senior Center, can call (925) 283-3534 from 1 to 4:30 p.m., to make your ride reservation and get answers to questions.
"It's the sweet simple things of life which are the real ones after all," participant Virginia Stuart said of the program. "What a big difference your kindness makes! I use the Spirit Van a lot. What a blessing it is for me."
Residents interested in volunteer driving can call (925) 284-5546. If you would like to make a donation to the Spirit Van program, tax-deductible checks can be made payable to the City of Lafayette and mailed to: Lamorinda Spirit, Lafayette Community Center, 500 Saint Mary's Road, Lafayette, CA 94549. (Please write Lamorinda Spirit on the memo line.)
