About Us

The CancerCare Co-Payment Assistance Foundation is a not-for-profit organization established in 2007 to address the needs of individuals who cannot afford their insurance co-payments to cover the cost of medications for treating cancer.

The Foundation is proud to be affiliated with CancerCare, a national nonprofit organization founded in 1944 that helps individuals and families better cope with and manage the emotional and practical challenges arising from cancer. CancerCare services—for patients, survivors, loved ones, caregivers, and the bereaved—include counseling and support groups, educational publications and workshops, and financial assistance. All CancerCare 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.
