Ride Assist Naperville

Ride Assist Naperville Providing safe, affordable, and dependable transportation for Naperville seniors to medical appointments. Our first ride was in April of 2017.

Naperville Seniors in Action was developed to oversee "Ride Assist Naperville" (RAN). RAN, a registered 501(c)(3) organization, is a volunteer driver program which provides seniors transport to and from medical appointments. RAN provides affordable, dependable transportation for seniors and their caregivers to medical appointments in the greater Naperville area. Volunteers will pick the senior up

at their residence, take them to their appointment, wait while they are with their doctor, then return them home. This is not a shared ride, unless a caregiver accompanies the senior. Since then, we've grown and helped hundreds of Naperville senior citizens. As a nonprofit we are always in need of volunteers! Volunteer drivers remain our constant need, because without them, we wouldn't be able to "run". We are always on the lookout for engaging board members, help with grant writing, marketing, and fundraising. We ask for a nominal $15 donation per round trip ride to help offset some of our operating costs. No senior is required to pay if they cannot afford to. In order to keep this an affordable service, we do rely on grants and personal donations. Please know your generous, tax-deductible donation is greatly appreciated. You are helping us continue to assist Naperville's Seniors and their families.

We hit 80%! Thank you!

Your donations throughout our month-long Expansion Fundraiser made a huge impact and brought us closer to expanding Ride Assist Naperville to serve all of Naperville Township.

While we didn’t reach our $10,000 goal, we will start the hard work now to make sure our expansion is a success! We are a small nonprofit and know how to make things work on a small budget. Stay tuned for our expansion starting in September!

Thank you to every one of you who helped us with this fundraiser. It means so much to us and our riders. We are excited to expand and help ensure seniors in all of Naperville Township have access to safe, affordable, and dependable transportation to their medical appointments.

Thanks to your generosity, we are thrilled to share that we have officially met our matched‑donation challenge of up to $2,700 last week for Volunteer Week! Every contribution helped us reach this milestone, and we are deeply grateful to everyone who donated and helped spread the word. Your support directly strengthens our mission and fuels our ability to serve more seniors and adults with disabilities in our community.

While we celebrate this achievement, our work continues. We have until April 30 to reach our $10,000 Expansion Fund goal, which will allow us to grow our services and prepare for our planned expansion into Naperville Township. If you haven’t had a chance to give yet, or if you’d like to help us cross the finish line, there’s still time to make a meaningful impact.

Thank you for believing in Ride Assist Naperville and for helping us move forward with purpose and momentum.

Happy Administrative Professionals Day to the incredible Lyn and Jocelyn!

They are so much more than “admins” — they are the organizers, the problem‑solvers, the calm in the chaos, the ones who keep everything moving even when no one sees the work happening behind the scenes. Their dedication, compassion, and commitment make our entire team stronger.

Lyn and Jocelyn, thank you for everything you do. We appreciate you more than words can express.
