Awards & Accomplishments
PAF is honored to be the recipient of many distinguished recognitions and awards throughout our 27 years of service.
PAF’s most recent national recognitions include a Charity Navigator Four-Star rating, Candid’s Platinum Transparency 2023 award and Great Nonprofits’ 2022 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.
"Without your help we couldn't have the treatments to get my husband his chemo treatment because we could not pay our deductible. We are so grateful."
“I was overwhelmed – no insurance, very limited income, and a diagnosis that knocked the wind out of me. My patient advocate guided me, gave me options – even conference-called with me to help get answers and get started on a road that provided me with much needed information and assistance both emotionally and financially. I am forever grateful!!”
"In April of 2016 my dad suffered a massive cardiac arrest. After seeking several second opinions, the risk associated with undergoing an open heart surgery in the current condition of his heart was profound, and anon-invasive way to help was presented. This option was not approved by my family’s insurance provider. PAF walked alongside of our family (during the appeals process) every step of the way, navigating a complex system my family would have otherwise stumbled through blindly."
