The Pink Fund: FAQ What is The Pink Fund? The mission of The Pink Fund is to provide short-term financial aid to breast cancer patients in active treatment. What kind of financial aid does The Pink Fund provide? Typically, The Pink Fund will make a direct bill payment for the maintenance of health insurance premiums and non-medical bills such as, a house or rent payment, a car or vehicle lease payment, utility payments, car insurance payments, and/or license plate tabs. Does The Pink Fund provide any other direct financial aid? Currently The Pink Fund's support is limited to the maintenance of a health insurance premiums, a house or rent payment, a car or vehicle lease payment, utility payments, car insurance payments, and license plate tabs. However The Pink Fund is aware that sometimes breast cancer patients need other kinds of financial help. Each case is evaluated on an individual basis. Visit our Additional Resources page for more assistance. How does one qualify for Pink Funds? Visit our Pre-Qualify Here page for more information. Can you give me some examples of how the money is used? Sure. Jayne was on short-term disability for breast cancer when her 10 year old vehicle died. She used her remaining savings to purchase a new vehicle. Her disability check did not cover all her financial needs. She contacted The Pink Fund for help in making four rent payments until she could return to work. Charlene had used up her Federal Medical Leave Act and needed another three months to complete her treatment. While her short term disability would cover housing and transportation, it did not cover the maintenance of her health and dental insurance premiums. The Pink Fund covered those two bills until she returned to work. How does The Pink Fund raise money? The most effective way we raise money is through individual and corporate giving. Make your online tax deductible donation here. If your place of business has a matching grant program, please contact us for our Tax ID number or any other needed documentation. People make gifts in honor of, to celebrate, or in remembrance of a friend or family member. |
