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 dad suffered a massive cardiac arrest and open heart surgery was recommended due to my dad’s age. A non-invasive way to mitigate my dad’s condition and reduce the enlargement of his heart to help improve his quality of life was presented. This option was not approved by my family’s insurance provider. This organization understands compassionate advocacy in a way that hospitals and insurance companies sadly do not. What a weight lifted to know my father can have this surgery and get to spend more good years with his wife, kids, and grandkids."
“I am a widow living only on my Social Security. Your staff members were kind and helpful - I don’t know what I would have done without you! PAF’s service made it possible for me to receive my medication. I will be glad to let people know about the Co-Pay Relief Program. You have given me a chance to go on.”
"As a person with two chronic illnesses, Crohn’s Disease and Multiple Sclerosis, life gives you challenges. PAF reviewed my meditations and what co-pay assistance is available to defray my cost. They show local, state, and county benefits, such as fuel assistance, utilities shut-off protection, transitional assistance with food, medical bills, etc. PAF is a direct patient advocate from eligibility, enrollment and to approval. This is a wonderful organization. They decipher to mountains of directions and get patient to the help available. My sincere thanks."
