Program

Crisis Financial and Living Assistance

We assist cancer patients who are struggling financially due to their diagnosis. Each day families that never dreamed they would seek the assistance of a charity come to us because cancer treatment has robbed them of their ability to work and they cannot pay utility bills, buy groceries or put gas in their car. Many are un/underinsured and cannot afford out of pocket treatment costs, medical products, prescriptions or durable medical goods. Loving Arms provides up to a value of $600 annually to each patient for their unique financial crisis. We coordinate payments to utility companies, landlords, bill collectors or pharmacies directly and also provide food and gas cards. Loving Arms has established a small but growing food pantry so those patients with empty stomachs and wallets can be fortified to be successful in their fight against cancer. We struggle often with a waiting list for support in the low-income communities we serve.
