Mission Statement
Through an innovative and integrated approach of financial assistance, education and support, Angel Foundation helps adults with cancer and their families so that they may live life well with stability, strength and resilience.
About This Cause
Angel Foundation is a Twin Cities-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to provide support to local adults with cancer and their families with financial assistance, education and support. For twenty years, our programs have helped families facing cancer so that they may live life well with stability, strength and resilience. Our Programs Emergency Financial Assistance Emergency Financial Assistance supports adult cancer patients by relieving some of their immediate financial concerns. These financial grants help with basic, non-medical bills such as rent, mortgage, utilities, food and fuel. Grants provide comfort and peace of mind during the overwhelming months of diagnosis and treatment. Patients must be at least 18 years of age, be in active treatment for cancer, and live in or undergo treatment in the seven-county metro area (Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington). Patients can apply online through Angel Foundation’s website or they can speak with a member of their oncology care team for help in applying. Financial Cancer Care Financial Cancer Care helps patients manage the long-term financial burdens of a cancer diagnosis. This program provides support to cancer patients through financial coaching and advice by connecting patients to Certified Financial Planners™ who will help guide financial decisions that are impactful today, and in the future. This program also connects patients to additional support options and resources. Patients must be at least 18 years of age, financially independent, in active treatment for a cancer diagnosis, and live in or undergo treatment in the seven-county metro area. Patients cannot currently be working with a Financial Planner. There is no charge for this program. Facing Cancer Together Facing Cancer Together provides free education and support to children, teens and young adults who have or have had a parent, grandparent or caregiver with cancer. Angel Foundation works with families to help them relieve fear and anxiety about the cancer experience, reduce stress, and learn new coping skills. This program offers innovative and creative opportunities that combine “serious and silly” aspects. It also helps children and families reduce anxiety and isolation by building a support network with others experiencing similar situations. Programs include AngelPack backpacks, monthly activities, Camp, phone consultations and more. Since 2001, showing a proven approach to addressing critical issues, Angel Foundation has distributed more than $10 million in emergency financial assistance and provided nearly 30,000 program services to local adults with cancer and their families.
