KOMAK is an all-volunteer Portland-area 501(c)3 charity providing financial assistance to
cancer patients who are unable to work during their treatment.
We help with the bills of daily life so that patients can stay in their home, eat well, and pay
their utilities while they focus on getting better and returning to work.
