Volunteer Drivers

 

Cancer Car Program
The Freemasons operate a  program to enable cancer patients to get to treatment centres with a minimum amount of difficulty. A volunteer driver would pick patients up from the airport,ferry terminal or bus terminal or from their homes and take them to a treatment centre and back again. This service is for cancer patients only.

Currently the Freemasons cover an area that includes Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby and New Westminster on the Lower Mainland (seven vehicles); from Campbell River to Victoria on Vancouver Island (five vehicles); and from Kamloops to the USA border in the Interior (four vehicles as of April 1, 2004). There are approximately 500 volunteers in the three areas, some 15% of whom are non-masons.

Those wishing information on transportation to the various treatment centres should call one of the following telephone numbers:
Greater Vancouver: +1-604-872-2034
Vancouver Island: +1-800-663-7892
Comox Valley +1.250.338.5454
If you wish to volunteer, visit the Canadian Cancer Society website or email Cancer Car Volunteers.
