Access to Cancer Treatment

About This Grant:

 

The Beth C. Wright Center plays a vital role in supporting cancer patients residing in Hancock and Washington counties, who often face the challenge of extensive travel to reach major treatment centers in Brewer and beyond. For those requiring specialized treatment not available in Brewer, additional journeys to Portland or Boston may be necessary. Recognizing the financial and emotional strains associated with accessing these essential cancer treatments, the Beth C. Wright Center extends assistance through its financial aid program. This initiative aims to alleviate the burdens patients in Hancock and Washington counties endure, ensuring smoother and more manageable access to crucial cancer care.
