What We Fund
Fighting for Lives. Fueling Hope.
The Joseph Kane Foundation is a nonprofit organization committed to supporting families affected by life-threatening autoimmune diseases, including Wegener’s Granulomatosis (GPA). We provide financial assistance, advocate for patient rights, and raise awareness for rare and misunderstood conditions. Through direct support, education, and community programs, we stand beside patients and their loved ones—offering help when it’s needed most and hope that never fades.
-
We help ease the burden of unexpected medical costs by offering grants for treatment, transportation, medical equipment, and essential living needs during extended illness. Whether it’s a child undergoing chemo or a parent facing overwhelming bills, our foundation steps in with compassion and support.
-
We believe no one should suffer in silence. That’s why we advocate for medical transparency, push for policy reform, and work to ensure ADA accessibility for patients in every setting. Through educational campaigns and speaking out on critical healthcare issues, we aim to protect and empower the most vulnerable.
