New Day Foundation for Families is a cancer care leader that provides financial and emotional resources to Michigan families facing cancer to address the harmful effects of financial toxicity. Hospitals and cancer centers statewide rely on New Day to identify and support families suffering a significant loss of income due to a cancer diagnosis.
We work in partnership with Michigan hospitals/cancer centers to help families alleviate the financial burden of cancer, a harmful side effect that creates significant barriers to treatment and healing. Regardless of socio-economic status, the financial impact of cancer can lead to crippling debt, bankruptcy and disruption to medical treatment, resulting in poor quality of life and reduced chance of overall survival.
- We are the only cancer support organization in Michigan who does what we do for families, and we help with any type of active cancer.
- 87% percent of the families New Day serves experienced a loss of income due to their cancer diagnosis.
- 82% of every dollar raised directly assists cancer families in Michigan.
