Local Cancer Patients Supported Since 2001
Since 2001, the Cancer Patient Support Foundation (CPSF) has supported over 12,700 local cancer patients and their families. CPSF serves an average of 500 cancer patients each year, helping to ease their financial burden while they are undergoing treatment.
“No one is ever prepared to receive a cancer diagnosis,” states Sarah Wallace-Brodeur, Executive Director of CPSF. “The financial toxicity that goes along with a diagnosis has devastating consequences to patients and their families. Our goal is to help relieve some of this toxicity by providing financial support when patients need it the most. We want patients to be able to focus on their treatment and families, rather than if they have enough money to pay for their transportation to treatment, heat their homes or feed their family.”
CPSF is proud to have been a lifeline for patients over the last 25 years and is excited to continue this support well into the future.
The Cancer Patient Support Foundation (CPSF) is an independent nonprofit organization that supports Vermont cancer patients and their families in a time of extraordinary need by providing financial assistance and acting as a resource during diagnosis, treatment and recovery.
