You can make a difference!

Each day brings another cancer patient who has to make a choice between food or medicine, housing or health care.  Cancer imposes heavy economic burdens on both patients and their families and the funds we provide help them focus on treatment and recovery.  Your donations make an immediate impact on the lives of so many people suffering from the effects of cancer.

Your generous financial contribution will allow Virginia Cancer Patient Fund to provide assistance for qualifying applicants in some of the following areas:

housing

                            plug2 tele water

 Housing Allowance                             Utilities

The time you are able to donate to our organization could be utilized to help raise awareness and funding on behalf of cancer patients. Your time and talents will make a difference in the quality of life experienced by someone undergoing cancer treatment. Please consider joining the members of the Virginia Cancer Patient Fund Team who give selflessly to improve the lives of those waging a gallant fight against cancer.

  • I wanted to let you know just how thankful I am for your generosity. The financial aid really helped with all of the co-pays related to my treatment.
    I am currently done with most of my treatment. I have an infusion done once every three weeks until April. Although the diagnosis of was difficult, the journey has not been unbearable. God has placed many people in my path to help my family and me including your organization.

    Thanks again for all that you do.

  • Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the financial aid that you provided me during my fight against Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. I am now undergoing preparation for a stem cell/bone marrow transplant and have not been able to work. This money has helped tremendously in keeping current with my obligations. My recovery will take time and your group has made it possible for me to concentrate on my treatment and not mounting bills.

Since my diagnosis of breast cancer, treatments & now recovery, I have had many experiences, some of which I hope to forget but there are those which have helped me grow spiritually & personally. I have found hope, compassion, encouragement and genuine concern from your group.
