Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

Patient Assistance - Be The Match Foundation's search assistance program is a pre-transplant grant program that provides guarantees of payment for search and/or procurement costs, enabling patients to proceed to search without delays caused by financial and/or insurance barriers. This fiscal year 787 awards were granted to transplant centers on behalf of patients. The transplant support assistance is a post-transplant grant program that provides direct financial assistance to families in financial need, to help with uncovered post-transplant expenses, such as food, ground transportation, lodging, co-pays, and insurance premiums. This year 923 patient awards were granted. The Donor Assistance program helps donors that will suffer a hardship when they take time off work to make a donation.

Activity 3

Research - Research-driven innovations make transplants a viable treatment for more patients. Funding clinical trials, both pediatric and adult, continues to be a priority, giving doctors new tools that impact a patient's survival rate as well as his or her quality of life. Research is conducted in hope of creating better cellular transplant therapies for survival and quality of life. Be The Match Foundation helps cover a portion of the research scholar grants, and during FY12, three Amy Manasevit research scholars as well as collaborative work done by a team of researchers at the Anthony Nolan Trust performed work related to these research efforts.
