Patient Transportation Van
Cancer patients often have to travel long distances to receive life-saving treatments. Patients in rural areas have few choices, as good public transportation is rare. Statistics show that the further one lives from a treatment center, the greater the chances they will skip or miss a treatment. Not surprising, survivor rates are lower in areas underserved by transportation services. Driving Hope aims to provide safe, comfortable, and affordable long-distance transportation for rural cancer patients. We cannot provide this service without a suitable van.
Your donations will help us reach our goal, so we can:
1. Pay of the Honda van already purchased and in service. This van is primarily used for short and medium-distance rides. (Hear Ms. Ellen's experience below).
2. Buy a second van. Our higher goal is to customize a van for long-distance transportation with the unique needs of these patients in mind. These funds will go directly toward the purchase or customization. (Hear Stacy's experience below.)
*It is our goal to expand this service to many underserved areas across the U.S.
