A Second Breath Foundation (www.asecondbreath.org) was founded for the purpose of financially aiding people who are waiting for or who have received lung transplants. Medical insurance in many cases does not cover all of the costs incurred and this foundation works with transplant hospitals to assist transplant candidates. A goal of the Foundation is to create a project called Patrick’s Place, a housing environment for the transplant patient and family prior to, during and directly after the transplant. Taking away the financial burden and problems with finding suitable housing will aid the patient and the family so they may focus on the most important thing – breathing.
100% of donations go directly to the charity. A Second Breath is funded by directors and through fund raising. The Board of Directors is responsible for all operational costs.
