Thanks for helping us pay the August COBRA premium.

I want to tell you about a foundation which has offered to help with a portion of the COBRA premiums for the next couple of months.

CANCER EDUCATION AND RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF TEXAS

CERFT provides programs and services for cancer patients, their families, physicians, and other medical professionals Our focus is an offering of solutions for those affected by cancer.

MORE OPPORTUNITIES

CERFT is currently exploring programs to:
1. Raise awareness and advance cancer education, prevention, detection, and treatment for underserved populations.
2. Provide financial assistance to patients and their families who cannot afford medical, emotional, or psychological care.
3. Offer continuing education to medical professionals.
CERFT is funded privately by caring individuals, doctors, medical professionals, and others who want to see people get assistance if they need it. They specifically have a program to help pay COBRA premiums to keep the patient’s insurance in force so they are not saddled with medical bills which could not be paid.

I have added a link to their website in the “Links to Life” section on the right. Please visit their site for more information about CERFT and how to make donations.
