Get Involved
There are many ways in which you can get involved. Donating money is the quickest way – and of course we greatly appreciate it.
But apart from that you can hold BBQ parties, cake sales, or you can even get your entire organisation to join in – all the while having great fun!
Fundraising can be fun; you can make new friends and be helping others at the same time. Lots of people doing lots of small things can make an amazing difference.
Below are some ideas that you can try out.
1. Become Our Sponsor
We have many very generous sponsors already, but we can always use more help. If you feel that your organisation can become a sponsor please have a look at the different options on our Sponsors page, and then call us to discuss.
2. Become a Volunteer
Volunteers are always needed!
Have you got some time to spare and want to help others?
The MABS Cancer Support Group Murcia/Mar Menor is looking for volunteers and we’d love to hear from you! The Group is run entirely by Volunteers from all walks of life, some of whose lives have been touched by cancer and others who have life, business and driving skills.
Comprehensive training is offered with ongoing support to encourage and maintain a professional service to those who need our help.
What about volunteering to drive patients to hospital appointments or perhaps providing support in the home?
Maybe you’re an ex-nurse, who’d be willing to give up a few hours to help with the care of a cancer patient after release from hospital, or someone who speaks good Spanish and could help with translations. Are you good at fundraising?
Whatever Your Skills – We Need You!
Are you able to help with a few hours of your time given freely? Then please call or email us.
We need:
- Fundraisers
- Drivers
- Translators
- Carers/Buddies
- Administrators
