JULY 2024 | CHRISTINE HUMPHREYS
Hello,
My name is Jean and I have been a resident of Moncton since the age of 6.
After my retirement in June 2022, I was looking for a place to volunteer. I began my search at the South East Volunteer Center. Debbi introduced me to the Urban Rural Rides service and in November 2022 I joined the group to do 2 afternoons a week. The service is very well organized and the hours are flexible.
The customers are friendly and always very grateful. I encourage everyone to get involved and offer some of their time to assist those who need help.

APRIL 2024 | MONIQUE OUELLETTE
I am surprised by this honor. I am a retired nurse and I love helping people live better. My role as a volunteer driver allows me to enjoy a rewarding retirement. I also keep busy as a knitter and transform wood into buttons and accessories. I also work as a mentor for newcomers for the Vitalité Health Network. I am very busy, but my role as a driver is important and I want to give it a certain priority in my life, because people appreciate the service I provide them so much.
MARCH 2024 | GASTON JOLICOEUR

JANUARY 2024 | TERRY SISSON
The opportunity to become an Urban Rural Rides driver came almost a year ago and I thought it was a good fit for both the URR and myself. I was born and raised in Arthurette which is now in the District of Tobique Valley. I left to go to university, returning to Arthurette to teach at my old high school, Tobique Valley High 12 years later. (Learn more)
