So many people need this. My widowed best friend in Illinois had to put off cataract surgery last month because she had no way to get to the optometrist in her town - no taxis, no buses, no Ubers or Lyfts, etc. She had to wait until a family member was able to come to her town and take her and wait and take her home. There are a lot of people who need transportation assistance.
