About

The CancerCare Co-Payment Assistance Foundation is a nonprofit organization that helps people being treated for cancer afford co-payments for chemotherapy and targeted treatment drugs. We provide assistance to ensure patients’ access to care and compliance with their prescribed treatments.

The Foundation is proud to be affiliated with CancerCare, a national nonprofit organization founded in 1944 that provides free, professional support services to individuals, families, caregivers, and the bereaved to help them better cope with and manage the emotional and practical challenges arising from cancer.  Services include counseling and support groups, educational publications and workshops, and financial assistance. All services are provided by professional oncology social workers and are offered completely free of charge.

The Foundation is managed by a professional staff and an independent Board of Trustees, which has oversight responsibility for the program’s guidelines, processes, and operations.
