    What problem would you like to solve?

    Seniors, with little income or mobility, still have full lives that they struggle to attend due to unreliable, costly, or flat out rude driving services.

    Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

    Transporting all seniors safely and carefully is a kindness they deserve. There are already services like Access-A-Ride that care for a great deal of elderly patients. People should not have to wait until they are injured to be removed from situations that are dangerous to their fragile health and bodies.

    What idea do you have to address the problem?

    Funding a new or existing senior transportation service with a major focus on HR training great customer service.

    Who would that help?

    North Shore seniors

    What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

    Staten Island
