Road To Recovery is an American Cancer Society program designed to help improve the quality of life and reduce barriers to care for cancer patients undergoing active treatment by transporting them to and from cancer-related treatment appointments.
The Road To Recovery Volunteer driver can help provide people with transportation to and from their cancer-related treatment appointments. Drivers donate their time and the use of their personal vehicles to help ensure that people with cancer get the treatments they need. Volunteer drivers are also there to show support and provide information and resource referrals coordinated through the American Cancer Society.
Keep in mind that most rides are needed during Monday - Friday, primarily between 7 am and 7 pm. Drivers should have some availability during that time frame. Drivers have complete freedom to select what days/times/mileage they would like to drive. We are seeking drivers who can pick up patients from a variety of locations throughout Lancaster county.
To learn more or to sign up to volunteer, please visit www.cancer.org/drive or call 1-800-227-2345.
