If you have been diagnosed with breast cancer and are experiencing financial difficulty or health care access issues, we are here to help. The DONNA CareLine is a resource available to answer any questions you may have and provide valuable insight to your patient care. The DONNA CareLine is funded by The DONNA Foundation and staffed by insurance and healthcare experts through a partnership with the Patient Advocate Foundation. To date, we have helped over 10,000 families living with breast cancer meet their critical needs. Help comes in many forms; it might be providing much needed transportation to and from treatments, making a co-pay payment on your behalf, assisting with child care payments during your treatment, or help with household utility bills. The needs are countless, and we will work tirelessly, every day, to help you meet all your needs during this difficult time. The DONNA CareLine is available to you 365 days a year, 24/7.
In January 2005, I heard Donna Deegan talk about her experience following her 2nd diagnosis with breast cancer and her mission to assure those experiencing a breast cancer diagnosis would not be further burdened with a financial crisis. To raise money, I offered a discount to our local Galloway Training Program for anyone who pledged to raise money. My single donation may not amount to much, but together, we are making a world of difference.
