The American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery free program assists patients and their caregivers with these transportation needs. You can help save a life by volunteering your time as a Road to Recovery Volunteer Coordinator.
Volunteer drivers in the Road To Recovery program help patients get to the lifesaving treatment they need. Volunteer drivers donate their time and vehicles to take patients to and from treatment appointments. They also provide encouragement and support.
