Our Impact

Since launching our first fund in 2004, HealthWell has provided financial assistance – and hope – to over 150,000 patients, many of whom could not have afforded their treatments without HealthWell’s support: individuals like Keith from Florida, who stopped his medication and risked going blind in order not to become a financial drain to his family; or Nancy from Indiana, who was diagnosed with Stage 4 non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and couldn’t afford her treatments following a 200% increase in her insurance premium.  Thanks to the generosity of our donors, Keith, Nancy and thousands of others now have access to life-saving and life-changing medications.

Testimonial

This letter is to express our appreciation for the recent notification that your award for my wife Ruth for 2008-2009 has been increased to $8,000. This news comes at a most welcome time given the difficulties of our economy in general, our personal financial situation, and Ruth’s daily struggle with MDS and the iron overload that comes with transfusions every two weeks. We are most grateful for your generosity and that of your donors. With your assistance, Ruth’s iron overload has been reduced significantly. Thank you for the good work you do.

—Frank, Valley, NE
