Coping With Your Financial Concerns When You Have Breast Cancer (all provinces), created by Willow Breast Cancer Support Canada, is the only comprehensive resource, customized for each province, to help people navigate the financial difficulties associated with breast cancer.

Kelly Shires Breast Cancer Foundation (Ontario) was established to help women/men who have been diagnosed with breast cancer. There are many unforeseen expenses people may face, which their health insurance program may not cover. The foundation provides financial assistance to people in these situations in order to make their fight with cancer a little less challenging.

London Regional Cancer Centre (Southwestern Ontario): In partnership with the London Health Sciences Foundation through the Breast Cancer Support Services and the frontline Massel-Cruickshank fund, short-term financial assistance is provided for breast cancer patients at the London Regional Cancer Program. This includes expenses related to home and/or child care, wigs, transportation costs, therapies, living expenses and personal care, emergency incidentals – anything that assists in improving your quality of life.

Patient Financial Assistance Program (PFAP) (Alberta) provides short-term help for cancer patients so families can focus on recovery instead of how to pay for transportation or cover the cost of medications. Contact 1-866-408-5465
