Care Team Volunteers The Columbia Basin Cancer Foundation has a team of trained volunteers.
Patient Services
These 'angels' make up our Care Team,
offering their time and talents in many different ways.
What they do:
As a volunteer you might help a cancer patient get to treatment or the grocery store, you might deliver a meal, or help them find that perfect wig! Sometimes all it takes is making a friendly phone call to offer a listening ear or just to chat.
How to get Involved:
