Shriners Transportation Program

The Shriners Hospitals for Children transportation program provides free transportation for children and their families to and from Shriners Hospitals for medical care. This includes local transportation, air travel, and other modes of transport, ensuring children can access the specialized care they need. The program is funded by donations and managed separately from Shrine Center funds. 

Here's a more detailed look at the program:

  • Purpose: The program's main goal is to eliminate transportation barriers that might prevent children from receiving the specialized medical care offered at Shriners Hospitals.
  • Funding: The Shriners Transportation Program is funded through donations, including those specifically designated for the Patient Transportation Fund.
  • Types of Transportation: The program covers a variety of transportation needs, including:
  • Local Transportation: Volunteers from Shrine centers provide transportation using specialized vehicles like vans and cars, often donating their time and resources.
  • Air Travel: This includes both commercial flights and medevac services, especially crucial for patients needing urgent care or traveling long distances.
  • Other Modes: The program may also arrange for train or bus tickets when appropriate.
