Helping Wheels
On This Page
The Helping Wheels Fund provides limited assistance with the cost of paratransit
fares for
travel within San Francisco in our Lift-Van, ADA Access, or taxi services.
To be eligible, individuals must:
- Be low-income, based on SSI or GA standards.
- Be an ADA-eligible Paratransit customer.
- Have a sudden unexpected medical need requiring many trips (e.g. starting kidney
dialysis) or unexpected loss or residence or possessions (e.g. due to a fire or
theft), or other significant need.
Because Helping Wheels is funded by individual donations, help is available only
when funds remain on hand.
For more information about the Helping Wheels Fund, please call the San Francisco
Paratransit office at (415) 351-7070.
