Joe Andruzzi Foundation
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE JOE ANDRUZZI FOUNDATION IS NO LONGER ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR THEIR 128TH BOSTON MARATHON TEAM.
The Joe Andruzzi Foundation (JAF) is committed to providing help, hope, and a reason to smile, for New England cancer patients and their families by contributing financial support when it is needed most.
JAF assists patients of all ages, any type of cancer, throughout New England who are struggling financially as a result of a cancer diagnosis. JAF understands that everyday living expenses are not put on hold because of a diagnosis, and JAF provides a variety of assistance to help patients make ends meet.
Because patients and families must often devote all their energy and resources towards battling the disease, the Foundation helps alleviate financial and emotional stress by providing grants to assist with rent/ mortgage payments, utilities, and other household expenses. JAF also supports patients with emotional and mental well-being, offering family activities, meditation, yoga, and other resources to maintain a healthy and positive outlook. This assistance allows the Foundation’s grant recipients to focus on their fight against cancer and not on the financial distress that comes with it.
