ORGANIZATION PROFILE Cancer Assistance Services of Halton Hills was created out of necessity in the fall of 2000 when the Canadian Cancer Society moved out of Georgetown. Since then this registered charity has provided practical care to hundreds of cancer patients in Halton Hills. With the community behind us, and many donations, we were able to open our office right here in Georgetown, serving Halton Hills. It is our goal to maintain high standards in patient care, offering support, dignity and hope. All our services are free of charge. Please visit our web site to see all the services we provide. Our more than 50 volunteer drivers provide free transportation to treatment centres and each year exceed over 200,000 Km's.
