The Gavin Glynn Foundation

The Gavin Glynn Foundation believes that all children with cancer deserve the best care, wherever that might be.

All monies raised will go towards:

 1: Travel Assist program which includes:

•    Transportation (eg. Flights, Car Hire, ground transport)

•    Accommodation within, or close to, the designated medical center.

•  Food and living expenses for the duration of the child’s treatment while abroad.

 2: NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) Testing.

•    Next generation molecular testing which uses genetic information to determine the right treatment, for the right patient, at the right time.

 3: International Independent 2nd Opinion.

·         To provide funding for prompt cost-effective second opinions and a referral system to selected cancer centre’s worldwide, so patients can be matched with appropriately focused physicians and scientists; and to support families who need to travel for treatment.

 To date The Gavin Glynn Foundation has helped over 90 families from Ireland battling Childhood Cancer.

 Thank you for supporting The Gavin Glynn Foundation and all the families that need our help.

The Gavin Glynn Foundation has been setup in our son Gavin's memory to help other children and their families in Ireland battling childhood cancer.

Gavin passed away on October 21st 2014 after a 3-year battle with Cancer. Gavin was 4 and half years old.

During Gavin’s battle with cancer we needed to travel to a number of different countries for treatment, so we know exactly what is involved and what families are going through.                                                                                                    

The Gavin Glynn Foundation believes that all children with cancer deserve the best care, wherever that might be.

Our mission is to assist families with:

 1: Travel Assist program which includes:

•    Transportation (eg. Flights, Car Hire, ground transport)

•    Accommodation within, or close to, the designated medical center.

•  Food and living expenses for the duration of the child’s treatment while abroad.

•    The child is provided a ‘Travel Pack’, which is a backpack that includes various items and toys to keep them occupied during travel and also during treatment.

2: NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) Testing.

•    Next generation molecular testing which uses genetic information to determine the right treatment, for the right patient, at the right time.

 3: To provide funding for prompt cost-effective second opinions and a referral system to selected cancer centers worldwide, so patients can be matched with appropriately focused physicians and scientists; 

and to support families who need to travel for treatment.

To date we have been able to help 90 families from Ireland who have needed to travel overseas for treatment or require international 2nd opinions.

Our website some of the families share stories on their child journey with cancer and the impact the help from The Gavin Glynn Foundation has helped the family.

On behalf of The Gavin Glynn Foundation we would like to thank you for your donation.
