Helping Hands Fund

Imagine not being able to afford the necessary medication for treatment, or not having access to transportation after a hospital stays, or not even having a place to stay for the night. The Helping Hands Fund supports the work of UPMC in Central Pa's social services team and makes their compassionate work possible as they care for our patients most in need.

Mammogram Voucher Program

Early detection offers the best chance for beating breast cancer, and when you make a gift to the Mammogram Voucher Program, you're providing the gift of free diagnostic screening for people who can't otherwise afford these lifesaving tests, making it possible for them to start on the road to healing.
