We are a not-for-profit charitable foundation dedicated to cancer patients.Every year over 800,000 Americans are diagnosed with cancer. And every year, more and more Americans beat the disease. Unfortunately, due to financial constraints, many face challenges meeting out-of-pocket expenses related to the treatment they need.These are the people Partners in Care can help. We provide assistance for incidental expenses related to cancer treatment. This allows the patient to put their focus where it belongs – on beating the disease.Our Story:In 1996, Dr. Charles Thomas, a Radiation Oncologist in Asheville, North Carolina, was bequeathed a generous sum of money by his patient to found a conference to educate local physicians about the latest in cancer treatments. The conference, our signature Fall Foliage Cancer Conference, continues to this day.In 2007, the foundation expanded to include financial assistance, cancer screenings, support groups for patients as well as additional educational programs. Today, the foundation serves patients in 18 states. Our goal is to continuously expand to provide support to patients so that they can have one less thing to worry about during their fight against cancer.
