Gift Cards - Every Little Bit Helps
The mission of the Humble Bumble Project is to alleviate even the slightest amount of financial burden faced by pediatric and young adult cancer families so parents and caregivers can focus on family rather than finance.
​
Cancer is expensive.
​
Beyond the medical implications of a cancer diagnosis, financial impact is often one of the biggest stressors. Gifts cards are frequently cited by cancer patients as some of the most directly helpful gifts they receive during their treatment. They are a simple gift with big impact.
​
Gas cards assist the patient in driving to and from their cancer treatments and grocery cards allow for the purchase of food necessary to stay nourished while undergoing treatment.
Hillman Cancer Center (Wellsboro, PA)Gas and grocery cards are provided to patients receiving chemotherapy treatment at the UPMC – Hillman infusion center located in Wellsboro, PA.
Hillman Cancer Center (Williamsport, PA)Gas cards are provided to patients displaced by the closure of the UPMC – Coudersport radiation treatment facility, creating the need to travel to UPMC - Williamsport for treatment needs (approximately 2 hour/90 mile drive one way)
​Miscellaneous gift card distribution (Tioga County, PA residents only)Miscellaneous gas/grocery cards are provided to active cancer patients that demonstrate a financial need and do not qualify for either the Flight of the Humblebee or Bumble Bucks financial assistance programs. Distribution is at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, is restricted to residents of Tioga County (PA), and is dependent upon the availability of funds. If you or someone you know is in need, please contact the Humble Bumble Project at info@humblebumbleproject.com.
