Transportation Options for Individual Volunteers

If you want to volunteer and don’t have access to a car, you can consider the following transportation options.

  • Volunteer with a student group
  • Carpool with friends who have cars!
  • Reserve a WeCar through WU's car sharing program. Through the Community Service Office's WeCar Fund, you can apply for full funding to cover the fees!
  • Travel by foot, WU shuttle, or Metro.  You can search our St. Louis non-profit agency database for agencies accessible without a car, or for step-by-step driving, MetroLink, or MetroBus directions. Don't forget to use your U-Pass for free transportation on MetroLink and MetroBus!
  • Student Union recognized groups may submit requests to the Community Service Office for transportation expenses related to community service projects. Funding is allocated on a case-by-case, first-come, first-served based through an allocation from Student Union. Please contact us to discuss your request.
  • Take advantage of CS40’s rental car (South Forty residents only).
  • Rent a car or van from Enterprise Rent-A-Car, which offers special rates for the WU community.  For more information, contact their Ladue office (863-6886) and be sure to mention the WU rates.
