The Survivor Conference is free to young adult cancer survivors and one supporter. Young Adult Cancer Canada covers the cost of food and accommodations for the weekend, we only ask that you cover the cost of travel if possible. If you are unable to cover this travel cost, we do have travel assistance available to help.
Young Adult Cancer Canada has travel assistance available which is based on need and distance. This year, we are able to cover up to 50 per cent of the cost of your to a maximum of what is allowed for your province. Here is the travel assistance per province:

This means: If you are in Manitoba and your ticket costs $500, we will give you a travel assistance of $250. If your ticket from Manitoba is $750, we will give you $300 (the maximum allowed for your province).
We also have several tools and resources that you can use to help you raise money to help pay for your travel (and maybe raise enough to help your peers). Check our Fundraising Options for some ideas.
