Many Shriners temple have a special unit of transporters called the Roadrunners. Road Runners have driven millions of miles bringing children to Shriners Hospitals for Children. For each trip, they pick up a local child and a parent or guardian, drive them to the hospital for treatment, and then return with them back home. The transportation is free of cost to the child’s family, but the Road Runners say they are paid with smiles from the child. When asked why they volunteer so much of their time, Road Runners simply reply that when they look at what the families are going through with the children, they are happy to drive any distance to help them. Alee has THE MOST dedicated Shriners. Thank you to the Road Runners! These drivers have been to Shriners Hospitals for Children in Greenville, Dayton, Shreveport, Chicago, and Philadelphia. We are living the Shriners Creed: ”…As Shriners, we look beyond ourselves to serve the needs of others especially children who cannot help themselves. We believe Shriners Hospitals for Children to be the world’s greatest philanthropy, and we covenant with each other to support its “temple of mercy” with spirit, time, talent and means.”

We will send a letter to the family or honoree & to your address for verification of notification.
