Introducing 2026 Northeast Region Charity – Lucy’s Love Bus

 

 

PCA Northeast Region believes that a passion for driving goes hand in hand with a strong social conscience, encouraging members to give back to the communities that support them. NER has a longstanding tradition of philanthropy and local engagement; the club proudly rallies around charitable partners that make a meaningful difference close to home. This year, that organization is Love Bus, formally known as Lucy’s Love Bus.

Located in Amesbury Massachusetts, Love Bus provides support to children with cancer, their siblings, and their caregivers, regardless of the child’s phase of treatment.  They envision a world in which all children with cancer and their families have the emotional, holistic, and practical support they need to thrive through treatment and beyond.

As many of you know, I spent every Tuesday for many years volunteering at Children’s Hospital Boston.  One of the children I spent a lot of time with was Lucy Grogan.  Lucy spent too many of her 11 years in hospital care in various phases of treatment.  Lucy was precocious, funny, and selflessly cared for the other kids in the oncology unit.

Founded in Lucy’s own journey, Lucy’s Love Bus remains rooted in her wisdom and lived experience, which still shape the organization’s decisions today.

Look for more information later in the year, and please reach out to me for more information.
