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.

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.
