Awards & Accomplishments
PAF is honored to have received many distinguished recognitions and awards throughout our years of service. Our most recent national recognitions include a Charity Navigator Four-Star rating, Candid’s Platinum Transparency 2024 award, and Great Nonprofits’ 2024 Top-Rated Non-Profit designation.
While the evaluation criteria used by each vary, these distinctions signify that the level and consistency of the financial stewardship applied to donations and the progress PAF is making toward its mission is among the best in the nation’s non-profit community.


"My case manager was a blessing. He was able to speak with Medicare on our behalf and get my father enrolled in Medicare 3 months early. Now my dad can finally go to the best cancer facilities in Arizona!"
"My case manager is an amazing advocate! I retired July 1st due to a serious, chronic illness. I had not received my insurance cards for 6 weeks. My case manager carefully listened to my issue, so she could assist me in talking with the insurance company, as well as the LTD Company. She has a gift of being assertive, yet pleasant, when requesting assistance from these providers. Within one day, I received my insurance cards in the mail! She followed up with me, and she truly cared and got the results that I needed so desperately. I cannot give her enough praise for her dedication, empathy, and genuine compassion for my situation."
"I’m 66 years old and I was diagnosed with stage IV bone metastasized prostate cancer in July of 2014. I have been through Chemotherapy, Radiation and number of chemotherapy oral drugs. My doctor has told me that he has run out of options. I found a new hospital and they had a lot of treatment options and was able to help me with resources to help me cover the cost of treatment. PAF was one of the resources, they helped me fill out the application and was able to tell me right away they were able to give assistance with copays. This new found treatment and assistance from PAF gave me and my family new hope to keep up the fight on cancer."
