Aging Smart
Gramatan Village is experiencing a growing demand for volunteer drivers who can offer our members rides to and from local errands and appointments. The #1 request Gramatan Village receives from its members is for transportation. Our members may request a ride to run an errand or for a medical appointment. The majority of the ride requests are within the local area, Bronxville, Tuckahoe, Eastchester and Yonkers. Most rides take less than an hour.
These rides usually take very little time, but they make a huge difference for our members! For more information click here:
