  • 3 people are interested

This is definitely a different type of opportunity! We are looking for someone who has energy, enjoys fitness, has known someone who has or has had cancer and is interested in joining our Founder on an Epic Cross Country trip Throughout June & July 2020. We are looking for someone who can commit to the adventure, as we are securing event locations for our special epic cross country trip. We are uncertain about the dates at this time and we are waiting to get the funding for this opportunity. The Volunteer would also need to volunteer with our organization prior to the trip to make sure they are a right fit.

This isn't our first Rodeo, we've driven cross country 3 times over the past 10 years, impacted the lives of 10,000 Cancer patients nationwide and made a lasting impact in their lives! This will be our biggest and best, most epic road trip yet.

Are you retired? A college student who doesn't do much during the summer and you want to support a grassroots, award winning small nonprofit organization? You MUST be Able to DRIVE. Ability to follow directions and willing to work, but enjoy the adventure as well. A Female volunteer is requested, but negotiable. The trip expenses are covered by our sponsors and donors, this includes, room, food and gas. Any outside expenses, you would need to have some money for.

What's the focus of the trip?

We are planning on having awareness events in different states to raise awareness not only about our organization and our focus on "Making Cancer Patients a Priority" but we will also be sharing information with cancer patients & their families ad friends about the importance of fitness, a well oxygenated body and not consuming sugar. We hope to connect with medical professionals and fitness people in each state to share information as well. These events will be community driven and fun!

We'll also be collecting "change for a change" at these events. The change will go into a special transportation assistance program that we are starting next year in our local community, but hope to expand it nationwide in the future.

Another part of the journey is visiting cancer centers, cancer patients we've helped and connecting with more people we can help through UCAAN.

Another exciting portion of the trip is attending the Fancy Food Show in NYC, to try and connect with food companies, as we have a side project (Starting a specialty food company, that will help fund our non profit!) This event is so much fun and we can't wait to go!

The trip will be inspiring, exciting, educational, fun and will help UCAAN help more people with or who have had cancer.

This trip is just under 60 days. We will be going to various cities and states nationwide, all the way around the country. See amazing sights, hear inspirational stories, laugh, and enjoy the experience.

We are planning on having dash cams in the car, so we can go live on the trip for our followers, so don't be shy.

We would love someone who is willing to volunteer on the side with our organization prior to the trip to see if you're a good fit. We will be doing interviews. :)

Only Serious Inquiries Need Apply. Thank you!

Description

UCAAN is a 501c3 Organization

"While all of the other organizations are raising money for research, who is helping the patients? The reality is that while research has progressed and we have discovered treatments to prolong a cancer patients life, survivors are living longer lives with a worsened quality of life. There are more side effects that are making a cancer patients’ quality of life even more difficult. These side effects include but are not limited to brain damage, memory problems, infertility, degenerative disc disease, deterioration of teeth & jaw bones, congestive heart failure, and post traumatic stress disorder! "

Patients Need Help NOW!

This is United Cancer Advocacy Action Network’s Long Term Goal! To provide financial assistance to help survivors live a better quality of life - through chiropractic care, dental care, healthy eating/healthy living aid, gym memberships and more!
