The Hope Chest for Breast Cancer Foundation provides emergency financial assistance to Minnesota breast cancer patients in active treatment, helping them focus on healing instead of financial hardship. Since 2001, Hope Chest has provided hope and relief by covering essential non-medical expenses such as housing, utilities, transportation, groceries, and childcare.

A breast cancer diagnosis can affect every aspect of a family's life—not just their health. Our mission is to ensure patients can remain safely in their homes, keep the lights and heat on, put nutritious food on the table, and access the treatments they need. By easing the financial burdens that often accompany breast cancer, Hope Chest delivers practical support, dignity, and hope when it matters most.
