\nWhat is Operation Red Nose?\n<\/div>

\nOperation Red Nose is a safe ride service available during the month of December. The service started in 1984 and is available in over 100 communities across Canada\u2014including Chilliwack!\n<\/div>

\nHow does it work?\n<\/div>

A quick phone call puts you in touch with a team of volunteers who will drive you home safely in your own vehicle.<\/p>\n

Drivers who use Operation Red Nose can make a donation to help cover the costs of the program and help support Chilliwack Restorative Justice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>
