The CAPCIL Transit Program is a transportation
program designed for seniors in Logan County, offering reliable
on-demand transportation to and from medical appointments,
socialization activities, retail establishments, and employment and
volunteer opportunities. The program serves individuals aged 60
years and older who struggle with financial stability, while
maintaining their independence.
Many transports have been provided to veterans needing to see
doctors at the VA in Springfield and Peoria. Many of the transports
have been for critical medical appointments, like dialysis, cancer
treatments, and other critical medical needs, and some are for
shopping or socialization. CAPCIL Transit also partners with local
care facilities, including transportation to ALMH’s Senior Life
Solutions Program. The suggested donation for a one way ride is
$2.50 which does not cover the full cost of transportation. United
Way funds are used to offset the difference in cost, to make sure
that this service continues to be made available to our most
vulnerable citizens.

Ryne Komnick, Chief Operator Officer of CAPCIL notes:
"Funding and support from the United Way of Logan County allows us
to provide safe and reliable transportation to seniors that
desperately need it without the stress of a significant financial
obligation."
Your Support Matters! Because this community supports The United Way
of Logan County, Illinois, children have opportunities to live
healthy, busy lives. Seniors can remain active and in their own
homes. Families can prosper and recover from tragedy. Together we
are doing what no one person or organization can do alone.
Thank you for making a difference.
