Hope Cancer Fund is a non-profit, tax exempt organization founded in 1994. Our focus is to help cancer patients and their families with financial needs. Hope Cancer Fund was founded by caring people who have dealt with cancer in their own families. When they saw their families going through this ordeal they became aware that there were some patients who had special needs which were not being met. Therefore, Hope Cancer Fund was subsequently founded to assist with those special needs, helping specifically with financial assistance.
Hope Cancer Fund is one of only a few organizations in the country that helps cancer patients with direct financial assistance. What sets Hope Cancer Fund apart from other non-profit organizations that deal with cancer is that we give direct financial assistance to individuals.
Since the founding of other larger non profit organizations in the 1940's and 50's many people have assumed that the needs of cancer patients were being completely met. However, given the changing times and the rising cost of health insurance, facilities and the care there is an astonishing number of cancer patients who are in great need financially. Hope Cancer Fund strives to fulfill and meet these needs when it comes to financial concerns.
