Colon Cancer Survivor Volunteer

Colon Cancer Volunteer Opportunities

• Share your colon cancer experience with someone who has recently been diagnosed—everyone’s cancer journey is different, but your story can provide valuable insight about what to expect.
• Volunteer your first hand knowledge to help others with Colon cancer navigate the different aspects of life with cancer.
• Help by driving a fellow cancer survivor to their doctor appointments and back home again.
• Run errands for someone facing Colon cancer, like going grocery shopping, picking up meals, or providing pet care.
• Visiting individuals with colon cancer while they’re recuperating from surgery at the hospital.
• Participate in a colon cancer support group.
• Take notes at a doctor’s appointment for someone facing a Colon cancer diagnosis.

If you’d rather take a more behind-the-scenes role, you could consider one of the following:

• Distribute care packages to people undergoing treatment by volunteering with a colon cancer support network.
• Help at a local cancer charity or event with administrative tasks.
• Participate in a fundraiser or donate to an organization like CanCare.

Our team of training specialists, therapists, and staff work together to ensure that every volunteer is prepared to do a great job. The training program prepares our Colon cancer survivor volunteers by helping them process their personal cancer journey, develop listening skills, and learn how to best support their clients.
