The Cancer Foundation of Northeast Georgia

The Cancer Foundation of Northeast Georgia 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. They have never turned an eligible patient away due to lack of funds. This has been made possible by their donors and sponsors.

n 2005, the Cancer Foundation was created by oncologists and social workers associated with Northeast Georgia Cancer Care (now University Cancer & Blood Center or UCBC), based in Athens, Georgia. Their goal was to create a financial intervention program to assist the increasing number of patients missing appointments and declining treatment due to the high cost of cancer treatment.

Establishing this new non-profit took some time, but TCF’s Financial Assistance Program served its first patient in 2009. The program helps alleviate a cancer patient’s immediate financial crisis and relieve the debilitating stress of cancer bills. Today, TCF collaborates with over 35 healthcare and social service providers across the region on a referral basis to identify cancer patients in financial need, improve their access to high-quality care, and provide real hope for their health and healing.
