Tracking patient assistance funds in one convenient, free app
FundFinder is a free website that helps you track more than 200 patient assistance funds from nine charitable organizations. You can sign up for email and text alerts when a disease assistance fund you’re interested in opens at PAN or other organizations.
Developed by the PAN Foundation, you can access FundFinder from any web browser on your computer or mobile device. Anyone can sign up and it’s completely free.
Please note, using the app does not guarantee financial assistance. All patient assistance is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis and subject to each foundation’s criteria.

How to use FundFinder
Log in to FundFinder
Visit the FundFinder website, enter your email address and password. Then click “log in.”
Find and follow your funds of interest
Once you have logged in, locate your funds of interest. A “lock” icon will tell you whether the fund is currently open or closed. You can follow both open and closed funds. For each fund, you will see which patient assistance organizations offer a fund, and the advocacy organizations that provide other resources, like helplines and support groups.
Getting notifications
When you follow a disease fund on FundFinder, you will get email notifications each time a fund opens at one of the organizations listed. If you signed up for texts, you will also get a text message.
Getting a notification from FundFinder is purely informational, it does not guarantee assistance from an organization. The notices tell you that a fund has opened and you can now apply. We recommend you act right away when you get a notification. For example, if you are on a wait list for a fund at PAN Foundation, you have two business days to apply, and the funds are first-come, first-served.

I received a text message from FundFinder that my fund was open and immediately applied. The fund was closed about 30 minutes later. I would never have known it was open if not for FundFinder.
