The Cancer Foundation of Northeast Georgia

The Cancer Foundation provides up to $1,000 per calendar year for nonmedical living expenses to patients in twenty-five northeast Georgia counties. The patient must have cancer, meet active-treatment or recent-treatment timing, and have gross pretax household income at or below 250% of the federal poverty guideline. Covered needs include housing, utilities, insurance premiums, nutrition, equipment and supplies, and several transportation forms, with most payments made to vendors. A healthcare provider or counselor begins the application after an eligibility quiz, but families should confirm that the stated $1,000 maximum remains current for 2026.
