Shirely Mae Breast Cancer Assistance Fund, breast cancer assistance

Established in August 2000, the Shirley Mae Breast Cancer Assistance Fund began with a gift from Roy Goldberg, Atlantic City businessman and philanthropist, in honor of his mother Shirley Mae Goldberg, a breast cancer survivor.

Based on the keen awareness that individuals diagnosed with breast cancer suffer numerous unanticipated medical, emotional and financial burdens, the Shirley Mae Fund seeks to offer relief.                

To benefit those patients in Southeastern New Jersey who have been diagnosed with breast cancer and who demonstrate financial need, the Shirley Mae Breast Cancer Assistance Fund offers relief for the unanticipated financial burden of purchasing:

Prescribed breast cancer medications that exceed insurance coverage
Breast prostheses
Wigs
Other related items

It is our hope that easing the financial burden in this way will lessen the hardship and that the subsequent reduction in stress might facilitate a strong recovery for our friends and neighbors in need. This financial assistance is absolutely FREE and without strings for qualified applicants.                        

The Fund continues to build on the foundation of Roy Goldberg’s founder’s gift through donations, fund raisers and special events.

To apply for assistance or to make a donation call 609-822-7172 or use the buttons at the top of this page. 100% of your donation goes toward assisting people of all ages who have been diagnosed with breast cancer.
