The platform is designed to direct 95% of all contributions directly to patients and their families, ensuring the majority of donated funds have a tangible impact on those in need. AL-CARE.COM also aims to make donations accessible and flexible, with crypto contributions being accepted later this month, providing donors with new ways to support patients.

"Every day, patients face not just the physical challenges of lung cancer and glioblastoma, but also the financial burdens that can add significant stress to treatment. Our goal is to create a direct, transparent, and innovative way to help patients and families focus on what truly matters — their health and well-being."

— Frank Leonard, Founder of AL-CARE.COM

The platform leverages a volunteer-driven model to minimize administrative costs and maximize the funds going directly to patients. "We built this platform with efficiency and impact in mind," said Tim Harrison, CTO. "From the technology to the donation process, every detail is designed to serve the patients."

About Lung Cancer and Glioblastoma

Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with over 2 million cases diagnosed annually. Glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, has a median survival of only 12–18 months despite advances in treatment. Funding for patient support and research in these areas has historically lagged behind other cancers, making platforms like AL-CARE.COM crucial in bridging the gap for patients and families.

AL-CARE.COM is an IRS-approved non-profit organization, ensuring all contributions are tax-deductible where applicable. The team encourages donations through traditional channels immediately, with crypto donations becoming available later this month, expanding the ways supporters can help make a difference.
