“Transportation to treatment may seem like a small thing or ‘a given,’ but unfortunately, for many people it’s not,” said Anika Brown, chief marketing officer of GoRide Health. “Our collaboration with Warriors in Pink gets right to the heart of GoRide Health’s purpose: To make healthcare more accessible to those who need it most, and to do so with a service built around empathy and care. Through the Warriors in Pink collaboration we’ll be able to remove at least one burden from patients and families – and we’ll do it with compassion.”
