Ellie Fund provides essential support to all breast cancer patients in Massachusetts experiencing financial, physical, or emotional challenges during treatment to ease the stresses of everyday life and allow the focus to be on family, recovery, and healing. In pursuit of this mission, we provide monthly, non-medical services – including grocery gift cards, delivery of nutritious prepared meals, transportation to and from medical appointments, childcare reimbursement, housekeeping, integrative therapy services, and other personalized services – as well as patient advocacy, outreach, and education efforts that span screening to survivorship in our role as the leader of the Boston Breast Cancer Equity Coalition. Our unique model promotes treatment access and improves the likelihood of positive outcomes, while pursuing increased health equity across the breast health spectrum for marginalized patients – an essential building block for their success and empowerment.
