Patient Care Fund Application

At Craig’s Cause Pancreatic Cancer Society, we understand that a pancreatic cancer diagnosis can bring not only physical and emotional challenges, but also financial strain for patients and their families. This financial grant program was created to help ease some of that burden by providing support to those who need it most.

Our goal is to ensure that patients can focus on their care and well-being without the added stress of financial hardship. Through this program, we aim to offer meaningful support during a difficult time and to stand alongside patients as they navigate their journey.

To be eligible for this financial grant, applicants must meet the following criteria:

- Must have a confirmed diagnosis of pancreatic cancer
- Must have been diagnosed within the past 5 years
- Must be a living individual (not an estate)
- Must have a household income below the poverty line or have experienced a significant change in income due to illness.
