Yesterday we had the chance to bring our drivers together for pizza and wings and simply say thank you.

This work is not easy, and it does not slow down. Our drivers show up every day to make sure people get where they need to go.

We are grateful for the team behind the wheel.

We are proud to share that Medical Motor Service has been awarded support through AstraZeneca US' ACT on Health Equity Community Solutions Challenge.

This funding will support our Access to Care Transportation Program, helping individuals who face transportation barriers reach essential health care services across the Greater Rochester region. Reliable transportation is often the difference between receiving care and missing critical medical appointments.

We are grateful to AstraZeneca for their support as we continue working to improve access to health care and advance health equity in our community.

Today we are honored to stand alongside the Al Sigl Community of Agencies in support of the JustOne campaign.

This effort is about something larger than any single organization. It is about ensuring that people of all abilities across our community have access to the services, care, and opportunities that allow them to live full and connected lives. When one person gives, it strengthens an entire network of support that reaches thousands of neighbors and families throughout Greater Rochester.

We are grateful to be part of this shared mission and thankful to everyone who chooses to participate. Your generosity helps build a community where everyone belongs and everyone can move forward together.

Please consider making a gift through the JustOne campaign and joining this collective act of care.
