Rocking the Road for a Cure is seeking volunteers who will help pick up food from whole foods, other supermarkets, LI Cares, LI Harvest, Food warehouse, etc and drop them off at local food distribution centers that we utilize to provide food for our breast cancer patients and others in the community who are in need of food. If you can spare a few hours a week that would help our organization to be able to expand the amount of breast cancer patients we service. We have locations mainly in Nassau and Suffolk counties.
