Pay It Forward Fund is a non-profit organization that helps patients pay their bills while they undergo treatment for breast and women’s cancers. We pay essential living expenses so patients can focus on what’s really important—getting healthy.

The fund has helped patients buy groceries, pay their mortgages, heat their homes, keep their lights and water on, and repair their cars so they can drive to chemo. For hundreds of women in need, these gifts have made a difference at a time of crisis.

One of our recipients writes:
I am a single, self-employed woman, so in order to afford my health insurance, I carry a high deductible. When I was diagnosed with breast cancer, my biggest fear was how I was going to pay my bills. Pay It Forward has helped to ease my burden by allowing me to take some time off without worry so I can rest and heal. I cannot say "thank you" enough to all the people who help make this kind act happen.

We understand that it's difficult for women to ask for help or even accept help when it's offered. However, if a patient knows that they will someday “pay it forward" by helping another woman going through treatment, it enables them to accept the help that they need.

Pay It Forward Fund is administered by the North Memorial Foundation at no charge. One hundred percent of your donation will be used to help patients in need.
