Texas Oncology Foundation

Patient Support: The Patient Assistance program is in place to assist those currently going through cancer treatment with additional living expenses they may have. An application process has been set in place to determine eligibility for financial assistance, based upon the applicant's current medical condition and financial need. We currently have active funds in 37 communities.

Symposiums: Survive & Thrive Texas Oncology Foundation's signature cancer and caregiver programming, Survive and Thrive, marries the clinical aspects of cancer care with the non-clinical. At its core, Survive and Thrive is an educational intervention that aims to improve a cancer survivor's future wellness through health promotion education, community interaction and engagement, and reinforcement of post-treatment follow up. Originally implemented as in-person, one-day events, we were able to adapt the programming to a virtual platform when pandemic concerns warranted. Now, our virtual camps, webinars and support groups successfully connect those affected by cancer regardless of location. Through our virtual camps and webinars, we can deliver pertinent medical information, valuable tools and emotional support to cancer survivors and their families. Over 5400 people have been reached through our Survive and Thrive program since 2016
