Texas Oncology Foundation

About Us

Established in 1997, Texas Oncology Foundation is dedicated to providing support to cancer patients in the communities where they live, work and receive treatment.

A cancer diagnosis affects the whole family, and the Foundation's mission is to help ease the burden faced by families in need.

The Foundation develops and supports programs that offer hope and encouragement to cancer patients and their loved ones through:

Patient financial assistance
Patient support and survivorship groups
Patient and caregiver education
Providing connections to existing local support services
Supporting cancer research
Through these programs, we are strengthening the community that surrounds cancer patients and their families at a time when they need it most. By focusing on all aspects of survivorship – the mental, physical, financial and spiritual needs faced by cancer patients and their caregivers – Texas Oncology Foundation is dedicated to working alongside those in need, within their communities, through the total cancer journey.

If you or your organization would like to collaborate with Texas Oncology Foundation in bettering the lives of patients where they live, work and heal, please contact us.
