The American Cancer Society has volunteer opportunities available for those making resolutions this holiday season to give back and help others.

• A good driving record, which will be checked by DMV.
• Access to a safe and reliable vehicle.
• Maintain sufficient limits of automobile liability insurance for their personal vehicle.
• Must be in good health.
• Must complete the volunteer driver’s application and attend a training/orientation.
