We’re here to help ensure nothing stands in the way of you and a second chance.
We support patients in all 50 states and U.S. territories.
Help is what we do
There are three key areas that highlight the many ways we help patients and their families navigate the organ transplant journey.
Fundraising Guidance
A fundraising consultant is assigned to every patient to assist their fundraising campaign. Consultants are full-time staff members, available M-F, 8:30 to 4:30 CST.
Payments & Reimbursement
Patients financial needs are immediate. NFT provides prompt processing of submitted payment requests via direct payment to providers or direct deposit to the patient.
Peace of Mind
NFT relies on public trust to do our work and strive to continuously maintain that trust through our commitment to ethical principles, transparency, and accountability. Our operation is one of the most efficient of its kind.
