Volunteer

Travelers Aid Society has many different kinds of volunteer opportunities, and we boast one of the largest visitor service volunteer staffs in the country.  We have opportunities at local points of travel, as well as senior transportation assistance positions.

Ambassador Program: Do you love travel? Are you proud to be living in the San Diego area?  Are you social, and love meeting and helping people? Then becoming a Travelers Aid Ambassador might be just the opportunity for you! Our Ambassadors help more than two million visitors to our region each year with advice, reservations, recommendations, and information. Shift are available at the Santa Fe Rail Station—the training’s on us.

SenioRide Program: Many active seniors in our community are without reliable transportation options. Some would like to share rides to help save costs. In this program, you can sign up to share rides or help others out occasionally as a volunteer driver. We’ll tailor a schedule to suit your needs and availability.

Click here to fill out our online application, or download one to fax or email to our offices.

Administrative Support: As a non-profit organization with a tiny staff, we always welcome those who want to help out. We offer clerical volunteer opportunities in our offices, as well as occasional opportunities working our special events.

  • THEIR STORIES

    Rebecca

    rebecca-640x480Rebecca, age 38, had been in a relationship for seven years with her partner when it first turned violent. Her girlfriend began beating her, and was so violent that Rebecca was suffering from an inflamed and damaged kidney by the time she contacted Travelers Aid to see if we could help her get out of town.
