Plymouth Meeting Pennsylvania, United States For Pete's Sake Cancer Respite Foundation Full time
Who We Are::

For Pete’s Sake Cancer Respite Foundation enables cancer patients and their loved ones to strengthen, deepen and unify their relationships by creating unforgettable and lasting respite experiences. Working with oncology professionals at over 100 hospitals and cancer centers, FPS provides transformative respite experiences to cancer patients (ages 21-55), their caregivers and their children and offers our families emotional support that assists them as their journey with cancer continues. Our respite program helps families recognize it is love, not cancer, that defines them.

 

Patients must be nominated by a healthcare professional who is a member of the patient’s oncology team to be eligible for the program. Currently, FPS is exclusively working with our travel partner, Woodloch Resort, and nominated families are invited to spend five nights/six days at this safe, top-rated family destination. A typical respite is six days and includes a generous cash stipend, travel costs, accommodations, a For Pete’s Sake welcome bag with travel items and other materials that assist in the respite experience, including writing journals, materials to encourage family communication, inspirational and spiritual books on coping and hope, therapeutic art activities, and other carefully selected items to help make the respite meaningful emotionally and spiritually. 

 

FPS is in a growth stage as it plans to expand from its five-state region to fifteen states, opening satellite offices in seven additional locations over the next four years. Further, the organization plans to construct the nation’s first Respite Center dedicated exclusively to families.
