If you have the volunteering spirit, you have come to the right place!

CanFRiENDS aims to have volunteers and friends impacting the lives of those with cancer through encouragement, support, caring and sharing. CanFRiENDS operates under the auspices of CanHOPE, which is ParkwayHealth’s not-for-profit initiative to address the psychosocial and emotional needs of cancer patients and their caregivers.


What does it take to be a CanFRiEND?

The individual should fulfil the following criteria:

- Mature, energetic, creative and vibrant

- Sensitive to patients

- Be able to offer a listening ear

- Has a passion to help the patients as well as the organization


What a CanFRiEND can do

A CanFRiEND can engage the patients and assist CanHOPE in activities such as (but not necessarily limited to the following):

- Publicity Support
- Counselling
- Specialised Volunteers (doctors, nurses, lawyers, therapists)
- Providing emotional and psychological support

On-site registration

To become a volunteer, write to canhope@parkway.sg

Look out for CanFRiENDS events

For Registration and further details, please call the CanHOPE Hotline at +65 67389333 or email us at canhope@parkway.sg

If you are already a CanFRiEND, share your experience with us. I 'm sure you have stories to tell.

Hi,

I would like to find out if this organisation is religious-motivated?
