The Canadian Cancer Society’s Wheels of Hope program is in dire need of volunteer drivers in Prince George to transport cancer patients to their appointments.
Mark Kahan, the volunteer coordinator for the program, said the program runs from 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday to Friday and volunteers can drive the Cancer Society’s van or use their own vehicle – if they have a reliable, smoke-free vehicle.
“The Wheels of Hope program is providing transportation for five to 10 people in Prince George every day,” Kahan said. “A lot of people who can’t find that transportation (to their appointments) just don’t go.”
