Local Support. For Local Cancer Patients…

Because of YOU.

The Cancer Foundation is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to help alleviate the financial burden of cancer for eligible patients.

Since 2009, TCF has provided financial support to thousands of families across 25 counties in northeast Georgia. We have never turned an eligible patient away due to lack of funds. This has been made possible by our donors and sponsors.

A Foundation Where Donations Stay Local.

Hear From Those We Serve.

  • I didn’t know how I was going to pay for my mortgage. I was so worried about the late fees and I called the company but you had taken care of it. I wasn’t even sleeping before I found out about The Cancer Foundation and once I received your help, my stress has decreased.

    Veronica, Breast Cancer Patient

  • I had moved from where I was staying to my own apartment, and The Cancer Foundation helped pay my rent. I really needed it at the time, and it was very helpful. It made the move so much easier since I was going through chemo during the whole process.

    Wilma, Breast Cancer Patient

  • “The Cancer Foundation did a lot to help me. You have guided me in the right direction for financial help and provided me with gas cards that made a huge difference when driving back and forth from Hart county. That help was such a blessing to me.”

    Deborah, Breast Cancer Patient
