Raise money for Joe Andruzzi Foundation

The Joe Andruzzi Foundation (JAF) is a registered 501(C)(3) non-profit organization 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.

Through the distribution of grants and gift cards, the Foundation covers basic non-medical needs that patients and caregivers impacted by cancer often find themselves unable to afford including housing, utilities, food, and transportation. With the help of social workers and patient navigators at more than 100 hospitals throughout New England, JAF is able to identify cancer patients in need of assistance.

The Foundation also has dedicated resources for Wellness, incorporating both (Up)Beat Events and Mind-Body Opportunities to support physical and mental health through yoga, Pilates, and meditation apps. JAF believes that sometimes laughter and relaxation can be the best medicine and can help families forget the burdens of treatment if only for a day.

Thank you for choosing to support one of the amazing athletes running for the Joe Andruzzi Foundation (JAF) in the 2024 ASICS Falmouth Road Race!

Our athletes are putting their bodies and minds to the test, not only enduring months of training, and completing a seven-mile run on race day but also raising crucial funds! Please support them in their endeavors! Because of their efforts, JAF will be able to provide assistance to New England cancer patients and their families during what can be the most stressful and challenging time of their lives.

JAF is committed to providing assistance to patients of all ages, any cancer, throughout New England who are struggling financially due to a cancer diagnosis. JAF understands that everyday living expenses don’t stop because of a diagnosis, and JAF provides various programs to help patients make ends meet. Because patients and families must often devote all their energy and resources toward treatment, the Foundation helps alleviate financial and emotional stress by providing grants to assist with rent/mortgage, transportation to treatment, food, and more. Through our Assistance Programs and Wellness Assistance, the grant recipients can focus on their cancer treatment and not the financial distress that comes with it.

Thank you for putting our runners one step closer to their fundraising goals. Each one of them is incredibly dedicated to supporting JAF’s mission and we are honored to have them on our team this year!

The Joe Andruzzi Foundation (JAF) is honored to be an official partner of the Numbers for Nonprofits Program which has helped charity partners raise over $50 million and raise awareness for their causes since 2000.
