How We Help

Impact Statement

The Relief Program helps cancer patients stay housed, fed, and mobile during treatment.

Cancer treatment often causes financial hardship when patients are least able to absorb it. The Needs Beyond Medicine Relief Program provides direct financial assistance to adults undergoing active cancer treatment.Relief grants may be used for non-medical living expenses, including:
- Rent or mortgage payments
- Utilities
- Transportation and fuel
- Groceries and basic necessities

The Needs Beyond Medicine Relief Program is funded by public and private grants, as well as business and community donations. Cancer patients who have strong support systems tend to have higher rates of survival; these grants are a vital gift to recipients. For this reason, Needs Beyond Medicine hopes to continue our efforts for years to come.
