Award-Winning Tutu Project Campaign Funds Help The Tutu Project Support Breast Cancer Patients During COVID-19 Outbreak.

When Jet Linx team members raised $92,000 for The Tutu Project in 2019, nobody realized the funds would aid patients in need during a global pandemic. In response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, The Tutu Project, an organization dedicated to the support of breast cancer patients and their families, began offering grants to high-risk breast cancer patients. This new Tutu-led initiative comes alongside news that Jet Linx earned a 2020 Communitas Award for Community Partnership, highlighting the company’s fundraising efforts on behalf of The Tutu Project.

Bob and Linda Carey, founders of the Tutu Project, realize that the high-risk populations they serve should be at home focusing on their health, not working or shopping for groceries. On April 9, 2020, The Tutu Project announced the immediate release of $15,000 to aid breast cancer patients struggling to feed their families and pay bills due to the impacts of COVID-19.

Fund distribution and vetting is managed through a partnership with Vital Options International. This 501(c)(3) nonprofit is a cancer communication, education and advocacy organization. The partnership with Vital Options International provides grants in a straightforward process that can be accomplished fully online.
