Cancer patients need your help. Many of them may miss or delay treatments because they do not have access to reliable transportation. Some may be too tired or weak to drive themselves, others may be taking treatment medications which prohibit them from operating a motor vehicle, and unfortunately their families and friends are unable to take the time away from work to drive them to appointments.
The American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery program provides a solution for cancer patients in need of transportation to and from treatments, by creating a community network of drivers willing to donate their spare time and use of their vehicle.
The program is currently seeking volunteers interested in becoming Program oordinators. Coordinators help connect patients with our volunteer drivers. Coordinators have a flexible schedule.
ACS will provide Program Coordinators with the necessary training. Desirable qualities are: good organizational skills, good time management skills, and ability to communicate effectively via telephone and own and be comfortable with using a computer or IPad.

Description
Together with our millions of supporters, the American Cancer Society (ACS) saves lives and creates a world with less cancer and more birthdays by helping people stay well, helping people get well, by finding cures, and by fighting back.
The American Cancer Society is a nationwide, community-based voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, the ACS has regional and local offices throughout the country that support 11 geographical Divisions and ensure we have a presence in every community.
For over100 years, the American Cancer Society has been working to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. We believe every birthday you celebrate is a victory. Another year that cancer has not prevailed. Your birthday means everything to us. That’s why we’re fighting for every birthday threatened by every cancer in every community. This year nearly 14 million cancer survivors will celebrate another birthday, thanks in part to the progress we've already made. But we can't stop there. With your help, we can create a world with even more celebrations, more laughter, and more birthdays for all. Together we will achieve a day when cancer never steals another year from anyone’s life.
