ABOUT US

The Belisha Foundation - Where AGE meets HOPE

The Belisha Foundation is a nonprofit organization committed to supporting cancer patients and their families, with a special focus on vulnerable groups such as children and the elderly. Our mission is rooted in compassion and driven by community action. We work to ensure that those facing cancer are not left behindโ€”by raising awareness, promoting early detection, and providing critical support through every phase of the journey: screening, treatment, comfort, and healing.
We envision a future where every individual facing cancer finds hope, comfort, and care. Through partnerships, grassroots campaigns, and direct support programs, The Belisha Foundation is actively serving communities in both the United States and Ethiopia.
