After their treatment is done, you’ll make sure that they get home safely. This kindness and support is much appreciated and it comes at a time when help is most needed. Wheels of Hope volunteer drivers act as representatives of the Canadian Cancer Society, and are well-trained and supported in their role. Flexible driving opportunities are offered based on your availability, requiring a once per week commitment. Drivers donate their time and their smoke-free vehicle, and are reimbursed for their gas costs. Drivers are needed across Huron and Perth County immediately. | |||
