Sinclair, American Cancer Society Seek Volunteers for Cancer Patient Rides Across Multiple States

Sinclair, in partnership with the American Cancer Society, has launched 'Sinclair Cares: Help Drive Out Cancer,' a program aimed at providing free transportation for cancer patients to their treatment appointments. Volunteers like John Parker and Suzy Lawerence have dedicated years to driving patients, easing one of the biggest barriers to cancer treatment by ensuring timely and reliable rides. The program offers flexible volunteer shifts with minimal training and uses an app to coordinate rides within local neighborhoods. A National Town Hall hosted by Angela Brown will further promote volunteer involvement and awareness of this vital service. This initiative addresses a critical need in communities by reducing transportation challenges, which can cause delays or disruptions in cancer care. Additionally, efforts like the CARE Clinic at University of Colorado Hospital complement these support services by offering patient-centered care to improve treatment accessibility and affordability.
