Travel Assistance

Financial hardship should not keep you from being able to attend a Little Pink retreat. We understand the financial toll that cancer can have on a family and have developed a program to help curb the out-of-pocket costs of travel expenses for individuals and families.

Eligibility

  • You must be accepted for a Little Pink retreat.  Please do NOT fill this application out if you have not received an email with your retreat assignment.
  • Currently in treatment for breast cancer or living with metastatic (Stage IV) breast cancer.
  • Have a current annual household income at or below the Income Level chart below.
  • Reside in the United States or US Territories,
  • Funding is ONLY for participants and individuals approved for the retreat on the application AND that are included on participant (or ex-spouse) tax returns.  It does NOT include others attending that are not included on their returns (example: parents or brother).

Process

  • Submit online form including all relevant documentation
  • Failure to complete the documentation by the deadline set forth or providing false or misleading information will make the participant ineligible for travel incentive to attend.  The participant will also agree to provide additional information as needed.
  • Little Pink will review the form and documentation and provide incentive to travel award if applicable.
  • Little Pink Houses of Hope Travel Incentive Program’s continuation is dependent on the availability of funds and reserves the right to modify and/or discontinue the program at any time and without any prior notice to applicants.

Redemption

  • Little Pink will provide financial incentive to attend to be used strictly for attending an assigned Little Pink Retreat. Funds can be used for the following:
    • Gas
    • Flights
    • Baggage Fees
    • Ferry and or Taxi fees
    • Uber rides
    • Rental Car
    • Train ticket
    • Hotel while traveling to/from the retreat
    • Travel incidentals (meals and snacks)

 

Income Eligibility

Incentive to Attend Amounts

Incentive to attend awards are designed to help offset the cost of travel for participants and families. In some instances, this may cover the cost, in others, the remaining balance will be the responsibility of the awarded participant.

 Driving

  • All eligible and approved families driving 0-300 miles 1 way qualify to receive a $150 incentive to attend
  • All eligible and approved families driving 301-450 miles 1 way qualify to receive a $250 incentive to attend
  • All eligible and approved families driving 451- 600 miles 1 way qualify to receive a $400 incentive to attend
  • All eligible and approved families driving over 600 miles 1 way qualify to receive a $500 incentive to attend

Flying

  • All eligible and approved families flying receive a $500 incentive to attend for the patient and an additional $250 for each additional person in their family household attending.
  • For Couples retreat to St. John, USVI ONLY, couples will be awarded $1,000 total per couple.

There are two options for travel incentive payment:

  1.  All participants will receive their allotted stipend amount (driving or flying) when they check in at their retreat in the form a check.
  2. If a participant is flying and would like to purchase their tickets through our travel partner, Duluth Travel, they will receive information regarding this process.  This is a great option to limit your initial out of pocket expense.  Although, all tickets made through Duluth MUST be refundable tickets often times making the cost more expensive.    If there are additional funds left after purchasing your tickets with Duluth, that amount would be provided to you in the form of a check upon your arrival at the retreat (see example below). We urge you to figure out your financial situation and what is best for you.

Example : If you are the patient traveling with your spouse and 2 children, if eligible and approved, you would receive a travel incentive to attend of $1,250 to be used on travel.

($500 for you and $250 x 3 household members = $1,250)

After booking your tickets with our corporate travel partner, the total for your tickets comes to $900, leaving you a remaining travel incentive of $300.  This amount will be provided to you directly to help cover the cost of a rental vehicle as well as bag fees, travel incidentals, etc upon arrival to your retreat.

Incentive to attend awards are awarded ONLY for individuals who qualify for eligibility in your household with approved documentation.   

Funding is limited and is not guaranteed.  The Travel Incentive Program is based on the availability of funds and the approved documented financial need.
