The Society’s transportation services help our clients get where they need to go!

Society Van Services:
The Society provides transportation service Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. to assist with such needs as:

  • Medical appointments and other healthcare needs
  • Participation in the Society’s programs and events
  • Grocery shopping
  • Financial appointments
  • Social engagements with family and friends
  • Other appointments, meetings and events

Current clients of the Society should call Rose at 314-301-7396 to set up a ride. Please call as early as possible once you know the date of your appointment. There is no fee for the Society van trips, but contributions are gratefully accepted to help offset costs: $5 one-way or $10 roundtrip within St. Louis County and the City of St. Louis, and $10 one-way or $20 roundtrip for trips to and from St. Charles or Jefferson County. There is no additional fee for a human guide to accompany the client, but please include this information when making the appointment.

Taxicabs and Ride-Share Services:
If our drivers are unavailable, or your event is in the evening or on a weekend, clients of the Society can make transportation arrangements directly with a taxicab company or ride-share provider and submit their receipts via email for reimbursement.

Taxicab and ride-share expenses (excluding tips) will be reimbursed up to $100 per month ($500 annual maximum) during the current calendar year. Clients are encouraged to submit their receipts for these services within three (3) days of the transportation event, but no later than seven (7) days from the end of the month in which the expense was incurred. Please send receipts to:

Email Address: accounting@slsbvi.org
Subject Line: Request for Transportation Reimbursement
Include: Copy of the receipt(s) as attachment(s) or embedded in the content of the message with the name of the transportation provider, date of the trip, and the fee amount (excluding tip)

If you have questions or need instructions on mobile apps to reserve taxicab or ride-share services, please contact the Society at 314-301-7381.

The Society will host an instructional session on how to download, book a ride and use mobile ride service apps on Thursday, February 27 at 1:00 p.m. Please call 314-968-9000 to RSVP.

Please note that clients will be responsible for making their own transportation arrangements with the taxicab or ride-share provider.

The Society’s reimbursement for taxicab and ride-share services is made possible through the generosity of private donations and concludes once the funding for the year has been expended.
