There are some organizations that International Aid can’t help but partner with. Their hearts for ministry move us to action, their mission resonates with the calling God has given our organization, and the people who receive their aid linger in our hearts, minds and prayers.

One of those partners is The Cancer Fund of America, Inc.

The Cancer Fund of America provides assistance to cancer patients who live in poverty and cannot afford to meet basic needs due to the financial strain placed on them by cancer treatment costs. According to their website, the nonprofit “provides aid to thousands of cancer victims and their families every day.” This aid is given free-of-cost.

Some of these patients are elderly and alone. Others are parents to young children. Others are elementary students who just want to feel normal again. Others are infants whose parents simply can’t pay the both the medical and grocery bills.

These people are in great need, and International Aid is committed to serving them.

For years, International Aid has proudly supported The Cancer Fund of America by connecting them with socially-conscious organizations and providing them with aid at a minimal service fee. In the past two months alone, International Aid has shipped the Cancer Fund of America assorted over-the-counter medications, protein bars, mouthwash, burn gel, antibiotics, hydrocortisone, hand wipes, soap, body wash, shampoo and conditioner.

According to CFA’s Lance Connaster, International Aid’s partnership with his ministry has been “a true blessing.”

“International Aid assists our organization greatly by helping us locate products that we need to provide to our cancer patients and their families,” he said.

We are so thankful for the opportunity to work with The Cancer Fund of America, and we pray that God continues to use our ministry to bring relief and comfort to these patients.
