Help Cancer Patients By Volunteering With Drivers for Survivors

Local transport and companionship service for cancer patients receives official nonprofit status.

From Drivers for Survivors:

Drivers for Survivors receives 501(c)(3) status!

Drivers for Survivors is now officially a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charitable organization ramping up to provide transportation and companion services for cancer patients.

Drivers for Survivors’ Mission is to alleviate the stress associated with some of the more practical aspects of a cancer diagnosis. We provide free transportation services and supportive companionship during treatment of cancer patients, freeing them to focus on their health and essential treatment. We serve cancer patients and their families living in Fremont, Newark and Union City.

How the community can help!

  1. Donate their time: If you have a good driving record, we would love to train you as one of our volunteer drivers.
  2. Donate funds: Monetary donations are needed to support the service we provide.
  3. Donate a service: Services such as advertising, marketing and printing can help us serve more cancer patients and recruit more volunteers.

How we can help!

For free transportation services and supportive companionship during cancer treatments, please contact us at info@DriversForSurvivors.org or 510-579-0535.

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.

Really? It isn't a private family matter? Then why was the Sheriff of SF County allowed to make thisRead More claim and plea bargain down so he could keep his guns?

What if I went to my boss and told him he would now pay me 100% more? He would laugh and probablyRead More fire me. The truth is we have no choice but to pay this 100% increase. We are taxed to death in this country partially to pay for crap like this and now this?????? Your organization already receives 60 million$ a year of our money however we are still at your mercy when you decide to raise our rates by 100% furthermore yours is the only service that has no option to pay online without a outrageous service fee???? And you say we should be "glad" FUCK YOU!

Everybody is serviced with the water through these old pipes. No matter how much you use, if yourRead More water is interupted for weeks or months after a major earthquake, you home is rendered "UNLIVABLE". They could have raised your "TAX ASSESSMENT" each year just like Garbage and Yard Disposal but that would be unfair to the homes that are unoccupied or are rentals. The rental owner would just raise the rents to cover it but they ususally take a 200% bonus on the rent so the landloard can take a "piece of the Action". Once a Tax Assessment goes on your property tax, it never comes off. Remember, the Water is FREE...it is the service that gets it from the source to your kitchen sink or bath that costs money. Be Glad the Oil and Gas companies have not made your water unfit to drink in Amameda County....YET.
