Our Mission

Dedicated to helping low-income brain cancer patients get the treatment they deserve.

The Thompson-Mason Brain Cancer Foundation exists on a simple belief: no patient should ever be denied treatment because of financial hardship. We provide direct financial assistance to low-income brain cancer patients and their families, covering travel costs, fuel, lodging near treatment centers, and meals, so that distance and cost are never a barrier to care.

We also assist with out-of-pocket medical bills from cancer treatment facilities, and provide financial relief to the caregivers who dedicate themselves to patients fighting through the final stages of this disease.

Our Goals

How we hope to help

Travel Expenses

No patient should ever miss out on the treatment they deserve because they can't afford to get there. We cover gas, hotels, and meals.

Medical Bills

Lack of insurance or out-of-pocket money should never be the reason a patient doesn't receive proper treatment at a cancer facility.

Financial Assistance

Caregivers of patients in the final stages of their battle deserve support too. We provide financial relief so they can focus on what matters.
