FISH of New Fairfield provides free rides to NF residents in need to local medical appts and more.

We’re a New Fairfield nonprofit organization that provides free rides to NF residents who cannot drive themselves to their medical appointments both in town and in surrounding towns.

FISH of New Fairfield provides a critical lifeline to our community, providing New Fairfield residents with free rides to medical appointments and essential errands. We’ve grown significantly since launching in March 2022, and today, the demand for our services—and our need for volunteers—is greater than ever.

We are looking for local volunteers to fill two key roles:

Volunteer Drivers
* The Commitment: At least one trip a month (more if you’re available!). All rides are within a 16-mile radius of New Fairfield.
* Requirements: A reliable vehicle, clean driving record, valid license, basic email/phone access and are at least 25 years of age.

Ride Coordinators
* The Commitment: Work just 1 day a week monitor the email at least 4 times a day between the hours of 9AM and 6PM from the comfort of your home. You’ll pair clients with drivers and schedule trips using email and Google Sheets.
* Requirements: Internet access/computer, email, and phone.

Whether you can give an hour a week or a couple of hours a month, your time directly helps a neighbor in need remain independent.
