Expect Miracles Foundation Investing in cancer research & providing financial assistance for young adult cancer survivors.

Expect Miracles Foundation [EMF] is a public charity that fundraises to invest in life-saving cancer research while advancing the financial and emotional health of people impacted by cancer. Our two research funds at Dana-Farber and Memorial Sloan Kettering provide incubation funding to advance research focused on 4 of the greatest challenges in cancer science: early detection, real-time prognosis, drug-resistant cancers, and metastatic cancer. EMF’s SAMFund helps young adult cancer survivors regain their financial footing following treatment.
