Patient Aid Grant

The Lymphoma Research Foundation provides Patient Aid Grants to support individuals undergoing treatment for lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). These grants offer limited financial assistance to patients who are either uninsured or have medical insurance but face financial challenges covering essential treatment-related expenses. Eligible costs may include medical bills, transportation to and from treatment, lodging during treatment, and childcare expenses. By easing some of the financial burden, the Patient Aid Grants help ensure that patients can focus on their health and treatment.

Cancer is one of the costliest conditions to treat today in the United States. With outcomes among patients with lymphoma improving, we understand that the costs of treatment, medications, and everyday expenses can add up quickly.

To qualify for a Patient Aid Grant, applicants must meet the following criteria:

  • Demonstrate financial need based on income and assets.
  • Be currently undergoing or preparing to undergo lymphoma treatment, as certified by a physician.
  • Be a legal resident of the United States and receiving treatment within the country.

* Please note that Patient Aid Grants do not cover everyday living expenses, such as food, rent, or utility bills.

One hundred percent of Patient Aid Grants are privately funded by individuals and foundations who want to pay it forward and help lymphoma patients in need. If you are interested in supporting the Patient Aid Grant Program visit Giving.Lymphoma.org/showyourlove.
