Mission

Vision

Their vision is for people with bleeding disorders to have full access to comprehensive care without facing physical, financial, or emotional burdens.

History

The foundation was established by a group of volunteers who received care at the Mary M. Gooley Hemophilia Center in Rochester, NY. The initiative behind forming the foundation was to create a separate entity that could provide direct financial assistance to those in need, as the Mary M. Gooley Hemophilia Center—being a federally recognized Hemophilia Treatment Center—cannot legally offer such support due to its legal status and participation in the 340(b) pharmacy program.
