together with purpose

At Flutter Club, we believe no one should face their healthcare journey alone, or without a way to get to the care they need.

We provide financial assistance to people of all ages seeking a second medical opinion or navigating critical illness, developmental disability, or reproductive health & fertility, along with their caregivers, companions, and immediate family members, helping them travel together with The Flutter Express to top healthcare destinations in New York City and Boston.

To ease the journey, each sponsored traveler receives a thoughtfully curated care package filled with comfort items and essentials.

As a 100% volunteer-powered nonprofit, we’re building a compassionate community rooted in hope, support, and connection, together with purpose.

who we are

Flutter Club, inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to supporting people of all ages in New York’s Greater Capital Region and surrounding areas who are seeking a second medical opinion, or navigating illness, developmental disability, or reproductive health & fertility.

We provide financial assistance to help cover the cost of travel with The Flutter Express, a non-emergency, non-medical transportation service to world-renowned healthcare destinations in New York City and Boston. In addition to funding travel, we gift thoughtfully curated care packages to bring comfort and ease during the journey.

By removing transportation barriers and offering compassionate support, we bring comfort, dignity, and hope to those facing some of life’s most difficult journeys.

our mission

funding life-changing travel

Access to leading healthcare destinations shouldn’t be out of reach due to financial barriers. Through donations from individuals and corporate sponsors, Flutter Club covers travel expenses for healthcare seekers and their companions, caregivers, and immediate family members, ensuring they can take The Flutter Express to locations with world-renowned medical centers for the care they need.

providing care packages

Traveling for medical care can be overwhelming, which is why we provide sponsored travelers with care packages filled with essential items and comforting touches to make the journey easier for our recipients.

building a supportive community

We’re more than just a funding organization, we’re a community of people who care. Through Flutter Club, we connect donors, volunteers, healthcare seekers, and their families, companions, and caregivers. Whether traveling alone or with loved ones, no one has to feel alone in their healthcare journey.

Watch this video of the fundraising trip Fit4Mom Queensbury-Saratoga Springs did with The Flutter Express to benefit Flutter Club, inc. On this day, we added a stop at Bryant Park in NYC to get this group of purpose-driven moms to Broadway.

Join one of our fundraising trips OR host your own fundraising trip to NYC, Boston, or a destination within two hours of Albany, NY aboard The Flutter Express.

Fundraising Trips & Events

At Flutter Club, we believe in the power of togetherness. We connect donors, volunteers, and healthcare seekers, creating a network of compassion and support.

For many, the financial burden of traveling for non-emergency medical travel can be overwhelming. Without assistance, some may miss out on life-saving treatments or specialized care. By supporting Flutter Club, you help ensure that those in need can focus on healing, not on how they’ll get there.

    The needs are real, urgent, and growing:

    💜 A breast cancer patient who must travel to Boston up to 10 times for surgery and reconstruction.

    💜 A mother with a rare cancer who needs to travel to NYC more than a dozen times for treatment.

    💜 A woman referred to NYC for a second opinion after months of unanswered questions.

    💜 A young person who needs a surgery that only Boston doctors can perform.

    And this is just the beginning.

    Every gift, no matter the size, helps someone take the next step toward healing.
