Corporate Angel Network

(914) 328-1313

Corporate Angel Network (CAN) is a 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to help cancer patients access the best treatment centers by arranging free travel on corporate aircraft. Business jet travel makes it possible for patients, especially those in locations with minimal airline access, to travel to specialized medical centers. Whether a patient is traveling for surgery, clinical trial, or a second opinion, CAN aims is to reduce a patient’s physical, emotional and financial stress by providing a seat on a corporate flight.

Participation is open to all cancer patients, as well as bone marrow and stem cell donors and recipients, who are ambulatory and do not require medical assistance while traveling. Eligibility is not based on financial need, and patients may travel as often as necessary.

Thanks to the generosity of over 500 corporations, including half of the Fortune 100, CAN has coordinated more than 64,000 flights since its founding in 1981. The program offers an invaluable service to cancer patients and their caregivers, while also giving companies with corporate jets the ability to couple business activities with corporate social responsibility.

If you are a patient or a donor, we ask that you meet the following eligibility criteria:

  • You are a cancer patient, a bone marrow donor or recipient, or a stem cell donor or recipient.
  • You will be traveling to a treatment, consultation, or check-up.
  • You will be traveling to recognized treatment centers as listed with the National Cancer Institute or the American College of Surgeons.
  • You are mobile and able to walk up the steps of a corporate aircraft without assistance.
  • You do not require oxygen, IV medication, or medical assistance while onboard the plane.
