In 2014 the BRF will expand its programs in Delaware County.  The recruitment of new volunteers is essential to carry out its vision of bringing cancer support services to a larger population.

Last year, Breathing Room volunteers helped 450 families in the Delaware Valley. Services included transportation for treatment, companionship, home maintenance, shopping and sorting for the foundation’s Thanksgiving and holiday programs and delivering items to our families.
