(VTC), established in 1991, drives thousands of miles each year assisting community members in Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence Counties. Over the last 20 years this essential non-profit organization has provided rides to health care appointments, grocery shopping, and other destinations for residents. The staff, Board of Directors and volunteer drivers look forward to a time when transportation to community activities and services is accessible to all North Country residents regardless of economic or special needs. But for now the mission drives on—striving to provide essential transportation for North Country residents who have no other transportation alternatives. The main office of the VTC is located at 203 N. Hamilton Street, Watertown, serving Jefferson and Lewis County residents. In late 2013 the organization added a second office to serve St. Lawrence County in Canton. Drivers logged 3,00,040 miles encompassing 97,674 one way trips across the North Country and greater New York State. This equates to just over 18,000 hours each year. This means the VTC is expected to see an increase in the number of miles driven and trips offered by our generous drivers in the coming months. If you are interested in giving back to the community and have a few hours free each week, consider becoming a volunteer driver. If you would like to become a volunteer driver, call John Exford, Program Coordinator, at (315)788-0422 or if you would like to make a donation, visit www.volunteertransportationcenter.org. |
