Patients who are battling cancer often find themselves battling difficulties on other fronts as well. Many patients must give up jobs, or have a family member who must give up a job. This brings great financial stress to families, which is why the New Mexico Cancer Center Foundation developed its Patient Grant Program. Through this program, patients may request help with rent or a mortgage payment, child care, transportation, groceries and other daily expenses. Funds also help rural patients pay for lodging or transportation costs to get treatment in Albuquerque or at one of our other centers throughout New Mexico. Funds go exclusively toward non-medical expenses and are paid directly to a third-party payee (mortgage company, landlord, utility company, etc.).

Supported by a grant from the Central New Mexico Affiliate of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure®.
