The need for critical treatment shouldn’t devastate lives.
Become a Champion and save lives.
TAF’s Champions are our most committed donors. Through a monthly commitment, our Champions provide crucial, consistent funding so that we can continue to help thousands of people who desperately need it.
Receiving a diagnosis of a life-threatening, chronic, or rare disease has a huge impact on people’s lives. From job loss to the interruption of a happy childhood, such a diagnosis can result in financial, emotional, and physical difficulties.
The Assistance Fund is committed to helping patients and families facing high medical out-of-pocket costs by providing financial assistance for their copayments, coinsurance, deductibles, and other health-related expenses to ensure they receive desperately needed treatment.
How can patients get well… if the bills make them sick?
We believe that no one should be denied the treatment they need due to an inability to pay.
Since our founding in 2009, The Assistance Fund has helped more than 190,000 children and adults access the treatment they need for a life-threatening, chronic, or rare disease. Before our patients found TAF, many were rationing their medication, at risk of losing their homes, or having difficulty with basic needs like putting food on the table. We currently manage nearly 100 disease programs, each of which covers the FDA-approved medications that treat a specific disease.

I am a recent recipient of support from The Assistance Fund. Without your support, I would not do my treatment for Melanoma (immune therapy). I am forever grateful for your generosity and help. This was a direct answer to prayer. I just wanted to express my gratitude to someone there.
