We provide free, accessible, compassionate transportation for seniors in the mountain community. Unlike other services, we accept donations so that means we do not charge a fee for rides. As long as our minivan can get to your home, we provide door-to-door service from our wonderful volunteer drivers.

Who We Are and
What We Do
Seniors4Wellness is a non-profit founded by Vince Ventimiglia, a 50-year resident of Evergreen and a former employee of Seniors Resource Center at The Yellow House. Vince knows how important The Yellow House was to the Mountain communities and the void left when it closed. That’s why Seniors4Wellness is dedicated to providing the services and resources our older adults need as well as a welcoming environment to socialize and engage in activities that promote wellness and joy.
