Travel Assistance Program
About the Travel Assistance Program
The Gavin Glynn Foundation believes that all children with cancer deserve the best care, wherever in the world that might be.
The mission of the Foundation is to assist families with all the logistics and financial aspects of travelling overseas for specialist cancer treatment not available in Ireland.
Supporting the parents in accessing and organising that care is what the Foundation does.
Keeping the whole family together, during travel for a child’s cancer treatment, is essential for the wellbeing of the patient, as well as the parents and siblings.
This is why The Foundation covers the travel and accommodation costs for the whole family.
By taking the financial burden and stress away from the families, it allows parents focus all their time on their child and family.
