Whom do I contact if I want to find people who need medical fundraising?

May 24, 2020 10:25 AM

I’m developing my side business in medical fundraising, working with people who need a closed-ended amount for medical and personal expenses due to a life-altering medical diagnosis. I am currently emailing and calling patient navigators at cancer centers in the Triangle area ( I currently live in Cary, NC and spend time in Asheville as well). What other segments of the community should reach out to, who work with people dealing with financial stress due to illness?

You could try 211.org to find local organizations, as well as the NC Community Action Association, the NC Secretary of State Charitable Solicitation Licensing page (which has a search feature), and The American Cancer Society's list of Programs and Resources to Help With Cancer-related Expenses.
