Tri-Cap seeks drivers
Tri-CAP volunteer drivers provide much-needed transportation for passengers going to medical appointments, family visitations, and other essential needs in and around communities of Central Minnesota.

Drivers choose the distance and area they will travel. Very flexible schedule. Our volunteers say helping people gives them a good feeling.
