Rhonda’s Kiss: Supporting the Complete Journey
Rhonda’s Kiss focuses on providing support to cancer patients in the most need. By making grants to select partner hospitals, we establish Rhonda’s Kiss Patient Assistance Funds that care teams can use to help patients with non-medical needs such as rent and utility payments, transportation, age and race appropriate wigs, and more.
Hospitals use funds to cover needs such as:
Non-Medical Support
Nutrition, exercise, and massage therapy are rarely covered by insurance. Paying out of pocket for these essential services can lead patients to make tough choices instead of doing what is best for their treatment and recovery.
Transportation
The cost of hospital parking and/or cab rides adds up quickly. By financially assisting patients and their families, we can ensure they can get to where they need to be stress free.
Living Expenses
As patients go through cancer treatment, often they are unable to work for days at a time, impacting their ability to make rent, or mortgage payments, or keep the lights on, or heat on in the winter. Helping patients make ends meet by supporting vital needs like shelter, and warmth remove some of the burden as they go through the treatment process.
Proud to have Rhonda’s Kiss patient assistance progams
