ORGANIZATION: AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY

  • 16 people are interested

Help cancer patients in your community get to life-saving medical appointments.

Volunteers with Road To Recovery use their personal vehicle to drive patients with limited or no transportation to cancer-related treatment appointments.

You choose the rides that work with your schedule. Rides are weekdays. We encourage drivers to provide 2 rides per month.


Volunteer drivers are ages 18-84 with

  • a safe driving record,
  • a current license,
  • a reliable vehicle, and vehicle insurance.

Volunteers interested will complete online training and a background check. Volunteers review available rides via an online scheduling tool.

We would love your help!
