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.

  • We are thrilled to welcome the Oregonian Media Group as our 2024 Persian Dinner title sponsor. The Oregonian recently sat down with founder Nasi Greenstein and President Dan McCreath: click Here to read the story.

  • Komak is pleased to announce that we have received a grant to expand our service by developing a volunteer program and a cancer resource catalog. Funding for this project is provided in part by the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute Community Partnership Program.

    We say Goodbye to a wonderful lady today. She was a pillar of our Portland community.
    She was exceptionally kind and generous. She was also a classy and beautiful woman inside and out.
    She was adored and will be missed by the Iranian community.
    Her son Hamid who passed from Cancer was the inspiration for Komak and it was his wish before his passing,
    to find a way to help others that don't have the financial support he received from family and friends.
