Seniors' Taxi Rides

Please fill out this form and click submit.

Background


The North Shore Unitarian Church (NSUC) formed the Seniors’ Taxi Club program in 2022.  This program was originally funded by a Canadian Government Grant for the purpose of helping seniors with limited transportation obtain rides to and from church services and events.

How it Works


1.    Seniors can sign up for our Seniors Taxi Club by reading and filling out this form, signing below, and returning this form to the NSUC Church Office. 


2.   “Riders” (people who have signed up for this program) can get rides to and from church services and events using a taxi service, Uber, or Lyft.  The rides will be paid for by NSUC, either directly (by having the rider use our account with North Shore Taxi, Uber, or Lyft) or by reimbursement after the rider has paid out-of-pocket.  


3.   To each senior who signs up for this program, the Church Administrator will issue a card that includes instructions, the phone number for North Shore Taxi, and the church’s account number.  


4.   To be reimbursed for eligible out-of-pocket Taxi expenses, Riders can submit their receipts to the Church Office along with a note indicating their name.  (To be eligible for reimbursement: the ride must be for a senior’s transportation to/from a church service or event sponsored by NSUC).

Rules


1.      Riders agree to use the Seniors’ Taxi Club only for the purpose of getting to and from NSUC services and events.  The events may take place at NSUC or offsite, and can include such things as:  Soul Matters meetings, Book Group discussions, FundFest events, and any other church-sponsored event.


2.      Riders will tip the driver a reasonable and customary amount, if appropriate. 


3.      The name(s) of the Rider(s) will be listed on the receipt, so NSUC has a record of who has used the service and can track the number of participants. 


4.      When possible, multiple Riders from the same area who are attending the same event will ride together to/from church services and events to save on costs.
