Here is an organization you might want to look into for help.  They might be able to offer some assistance.

CancerCare Assist®

We know the financial burden of cancer can be great. So, for more than 60 years, we have provided limited grants for certain expenses related to treatment. Our financial assistance program is one of the longest running and best regarded in the country.

In order to qualify, you need to provide CancerCare with information about your income, savings and expenses, and in some cases provide invoices for the cost of service. Your healthcare professional must also provide information on your cancer. Download our financial assistance application in English PDF or en español PDF .

Please be aware that our grants are not for basic living expenses such as rent, mortgages, utility payments or food. If this is the kind of assistance you need, please call or visit your local United Way for information on local resources that can help.

Below is a description of our programs available to people nationwide. Please contact CancerCare at 1-800-813-HOPE (4673) for more information.
