Disease Specific Resources

Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance is dedicated to curing ovarian cancer while improving treatments by advancing innovative science, promoting preventive measures, and advocating for, educating and supporting anyone affected by gynecologic cancers to ensure the best possible care and outcomes.

At the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition, we believe that no one should face ovarian cancer without support. That’s why we offer a variety of programs, services, and educational resources created specifically for individuals diagnosed with ovarian cancer, their caregivers, and families.

SHARE: Self-help for Women with Breast or Ovarian Cancer aims to create and maintain a supportive network and community of women affected by breast or ovarian cancer. All services are free and include telephone support, support groups, educational programs, and advocacy activities. SHARE offers support for survivors and caregivers and hosts educational programs either in-person or by webinar. SHARE’s Calendar of Programs is created quarterly and the next calendar will include a webinar on having children after cancer.

The ABCF provides direct financial assistance to uninsured and underserved women and men of all ages for breast cancer screening and diagnostic tests through the Breast Cancer Assistance Program, Community Partnership Program, and the Community Advocacy Program.

This group provides women with financial assistance in purchasing products they need after surgery such as breast forms, mastectomy bras, radiation bras, and compression apparel for survivors with lymphedema.

The AIRS Foundation provides access to options and funding for breast reconstruction surgery after a mastectomy due to cancer. Having a mastectomy can be a serious change in a woman’s life, and reconstructive breast surgery is often an integral part of emotional and physical healing. Unfortunately, a number of women don’t have the finances to cover the procedure. That’s why we offer breast reconstruction financial assistance.

The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is a United States–based 501 charity that funds research, provides patient/caregiver support, conducts community outreach and advocates for increased federal research funding for those affected by pancreatic cancer.

If you can't work because of your breast cancer diagnosis or treatment, the Pink Fund can provide direct bill payment for medical bills, housing, utilities, or car payments. Applicants must be within 90 days of active treatment.

Pink Aid's Pink Purse provides emergency financial assistance to breast cancer patients in treatment. These funds help with critical, non-medical household expenses, such as utility payments, food cards and transportation to treatment, with a uniquely rapid turnaround time.
