The City of Delta presented the Volunteer Cancer Drivers Society with a cheque for $5,000 recently. This is the fifth year in a row that Delta has supported the society, which expects to provide more than 2,600 patient trips to Delta residents in 2020. That’s a lot of driving – about 80,000 kilometres. Many trips are through the George Massey Tunnel for patients treated at Vancouver General Hospital. Volunteer Cancer Drivers Society president Bob Smith paid tribute to Mayor George Harvie and members of Delta council by saying, “Delta has set a fine example of the importance of community support. We are extremely grateful.” Pictured in the photo is the society’s George Garrett receiving the cheque from finance director Melanie Kerr and city manager Sean McGill.
