For an older adult who cannot drive, a ride can determine whether the day includes friendship, a class, a medical appointment, or hours of unwanted isolation. Transportation is sometimes called a convenience. For many neighbors, it is the difference between being included and being left behind.

Onuegbu, Slavin duo has helped put B-P girls soccer back on its perch
When Zoey Onuegbu and her fellow Bristol-Plymouth girls soccer seniors were freshmen, the Craftsmen were languishing at the bottom of the Mayflower Large table, ending the year 1-15-2 and 1-13-2 in league play. Fast forward to this fall, and B-P are now back-to-back Mayflower Large and MVADA State Vocational Large crown champions, qualified for a third straight MIAA Division 2 tournament and secured a first MIAA tournament win in program history. "It's just such a crazy difference (since when I started) and I'm just so happy to be able to be a part of that rise and contribute to it," Onuegbu said. Chief among that success has been the strike partnership of Onuegbu and junior forward/midfielder Hannah Slavin, who took the league by storm as a freshman with 38 goals and 11 assists and was consequently named the 2024 Taunton Daily Gazette Player of the Year . That same year, Oneugbu improved her tally from a team-leading 16 goals in 2023 to 26, with the duo powered in the midfield behind them by 2026 graduate and 2025 Taunton Daily Gazette Player of the Year Mari Albon. "We work really well up top together," Onuegbu said of her partnership with Slavin.
