The Ellie Fund was founded in 1995 by brothers Jeff and Eliot Popkin to honor their mother’s courageous battle against breast cancer and the giving spirit she was known for throughout her life.

The money we raise provides critical support services free of charge for hundreds of local breast cancer patients and family members across Massachusetts including transportation to medical appointments, childcare, housekeeping, groceries and prepared/delivered meals.

Important facts about us: How much we can help a patient and their family is based on how much money we have in the bank. We do not discriminate for any reason. We do not have red tape. Our support application is easy to understand and we can provide critical services in as few as 24 hours.

Thank you for joining our mission to make a difference in the lives of local families who are struggling with breast cancer.
