10 years of free round trip LPCH Care-A-Van rides to families in need

Over the past 10 years Care-A-Van has provided round trip door-to-door service to families who have no other means of getting their children to LPCH.

Thanks to selfless volunteers and generous donations Care-A-Van has provided 6,353 rides since 1998. Care-A-Van serves Santa Clara, San Mateo, Alameda, Santa Cruz, Monterey and San Benito counties. This highly utilized and appreciated community service is truly indispensable, especially for those with chronically ill children who require frequent trips to LPCH.

The 10-year anniversary finds the team planning for the future by moving their entire fleet to hybrid vehicles by 2013. One by one, the older vans will be replaced with fuel-efficient hybrids that will both preserve natural resources and lower operating costs.

Care-A-Van will continue to serve and strengthen the community for many years to come. Read more about the 10th Anniversary.
