This Sunday the clocks fall back — and before you know it, it’ll be dark by late afternoon. If getting out after dusk isn’t something you’re up for behind the wheel anymore, that’s exactly why DuRide is here: our volunteer drivers are ready to get Dubuque-area seniors to appointments, the grocery store, or a friend’s house, door through door, any time of day.

Don’t let shorter days keep you home — give us a call at 563-451-4999 or visit duride.org to get started.

There’s something special about the bond that grows between a DuRide volunteer and the member they drive each week, it starts as a lift to the pharmacy or a hair appointment, and before long it’s a familiar, friendly face to look forward to.

That’s what door-through-door care is really about: not just getting somewhere, but getting there with someone who cares.

Know a senior in Dubuque, East Dubuque, or Asbury who could use that kind of ride and that kind of company? Give us a call at 563-451-4999 or visit duride.org.

Keeping a DuRide ride affordable takes more than good intentions, it takes a community that shows up.

Grants, local business sponsorships, and individual gifts of every size are the reason a ride is $7 instead of out of reach, and why income-based assistance is there for members who need it most.

To everyone who’s chipped in this year, in ways big and small: thank you. If your business or organization is looking for a local cause worth supporting, we’d love to talk — call 563-451-4999 or visit duride.org.

DuRide only works because people like you are willing to give an hour or two behind the wheel. Our volunteer drivers set their own schedule and in return they get to know some pretty wonderful Dubuque-area seniors, plus the satisfaction of knowing exactly where that time went.

We always need more drivers to keep wait times short for members. If you've got a valid license, a clean record, and a little time to spare, call 563-451-4999 or visit duride.org to learn how to get started.

Today is the International Day of Older Persons. This day gives us an excuse to reiterate our core belief: staying independent shouldn't depend on whether you can still get behind the wheel. That's the whole idea behind DuRide. We have volunteer drivers giving members in Dubuque, East Dubuque, and Asbury a safe, friendly ride wherever they need to go, door through door. Here's to the members who keep showing up and the volunteers who make sure they can. Know a senior who could use a ride now and then? Call 563-451-4999 or visit duride.org.
