Reliable Transportation & Everyday Support
For Those Who Need It Most

Reliable Transportation & Everyday Support For Those Who Need It Most

We know that small things can make a big difference in you or your loved one’s quality of life. That’s why we’ve been serving adults in the Quad Cities who cannot drive due to age, disability, and vision loss since 1992.

Our volunteers provide essential transportation and non-medical support services that enable the people we serve — our Neighbors — to live independently and safely in their homes for as long as possible. We provide all of our services at no charge to Neighbors, which is why we rely so much on our wonderful volunteers and the generous financial support of the community.

Give Back. Get Involved. Change Lives.

Volunteers, donors and sponsors are the backbone of our nonprofit. From essential transportation and monetary contributions, to simply being present and forming real friendships with our Quad Cities Neighbors, any way you choose to get involved helps us build a stronger, more supportive community.

I feel I am receiving more than I am giving.

“I feel I am receiving more than I am giving.  The positive attitudes and friendliness of my Neighbors, despite their difficulties, are really an inspiration to me.”

— People Who Care Volunteer

I really appreciate People Who Care

“I really appreciate People Who Care and ALL of you that give your time, skills, talents so generously. Claire has been a blessing and a cheery, bright spot in my day as she helps me get my groceries.”

— Barbara, Neighbor

My experience as a volunteer has been life-affirming

“My experience as a volunteer has been life-affirming.  I am participating in the process of enabling so many people to live as they wish, at home and independent. Our neighbors never fail to express their gratitude for providing services to allow them this privilege.  And yet, for me, it is a privilege to be a PWC volunteer.”

— Mindy, Volunteer
