KSF provides transportation assistance for women with cancer living in Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap & Mason counties.  Women are referred to KSF by their healthcare provider (Social Worker, Patient Navigator, RN/MD). The Kathleen Sutton Fund covers ferry fees, mileage, parking, tolls, and any other transit expense for patient and companion. Typically health insurance does not assist with, or pay for any travel expenses related to cancer treatments.

The Kathleen Sutton Fund began in 2003 as a small local grassroots organization by providing assistance with transportation costs for women with breast cancer and living in North Kitsap County. Due to the tremendous  support of the community, grants and the annual live/silent auction fundraiser, the Kathleen Sutton Fund has expanded it’s services to women with any type of cancer and living in Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap and Mason counties! Since its’ inception, KSF has helped over 900 women and has distributed over a half a MILLION dollars!
