E l NOTARY -State of Nebraska "`� --- GE S Notary Public CAROL R. My Comm. Exp. July 1, 2013 April 1, 2010 The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) sponsored by the Eastern Nebraska Office on Aging provides a free transportation service for the elderly in Blair (Car -Go). Volunteer drivers, using their own vehicles, transport senior residents, who have no other transportation alternatives for: • medical appointments • medical equipment • pharmacies • grocery shopping • banking • beauty and barber • personal business matters Last year, volunteer drivers provided 136 rides to elderly residents of your community and the need for this service grows daily. Drivers are offered mileage reimbursement, when needed. The average cost of mileage expenses for one driver, each year, is $300 - $400. We are asking for your support by sponsoring one or more of these volunteer drivers (or making a donation of any kind). Our ability to provide this transportation relies on the generosity of the Blair community since this service is fully funded through private donations. Your contribution will allow us to meet the transportation needs of Blair's older residents, and will allow you a tax deduction. Checks may be made out to RSVP and sent to: RSVP 1730 W. 16th St. Fremont, NE 68025 Thank you for your interest. We hope we can count on your support for this important community project.
