We're Looking for Volunteer Driver Mentors

What is iDrive?

iDrive aims to break the cycle of disadvantage experienced by low-income individuals who don’t have access to a vehicle or supervisory driver to get the experience required to graduate to their probationary licence. iDrive is helping provide pathways for those living with persistent disadvantage to gain confidence, self-esteem, employment, training, and enhanced social outcomes.

About The Volunteer Role

Looking for an impactful volunteer role in your community? Become a Volunteer iDrive Mentor and help learner drivers get the 75 hours they need to get their licence, connect them to their community and see them drive right into employment and education. Choose the weekly hours you would like to volunteer and we will train you to drive with learners, in active listening, mentoring, and community connections.
