How much does the NOCC fund cover?
The NOCC Treatment Fund offers a $1,000 grant, once per year, to eligible patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer for non-medical expenses related to treatment and care. The fund will cover transportation to and from treatment/doctor, rent/housing assistance, utilities/bills, food or groceries, child/elder care, and house cleaning services. To be eligible, the patient must meet income guidelines and provide diagnosis documentation to finalize the application. Review the program disclaimer for this fund here.
Can PAF be used to process applications?
Once a fund becomes fully allocated, PAF is unable to process applications that are pending or accept new applications at that time. Should additional funding become available in the future, it will be necessary for patients to re-apply at that time.
