Getting Help

If you need help with medical expenses:
  • Call our message line at (360) 221-4535
  • Write to us at:
    Friends of Friends Medical Support Fund
    PO Box 812
    Langley, WA 98260
  • Send an E-mail.  Please put "FoF Help" in the subject line so we can respond to your requests quickly.
However you contact us, please provide your name and address, and a phone number where we can reach you. You should hear from us within 24 hours.

Friends of Friends is able to help in small ways to pay for most medical expenses up to an annual limit per person. We make these payments directly to the providers and never to individuals; we cannot reimburse for payments already made by you.

We can help with prescriptions and over-the-counter medications, visits to health professionals, medical equipment or supplies, hospital and lab fees or transportation to treatment on the mainland.

Examples of ways we have helped:

  • Prescription medication for a senior citizen diagnosed with diabetes
  • Co-pay on doctor visits for a child with multiple disabilities
  • Mammogram and ultrasound tests for a single working mom unable to afford health insurance
  • Ferry tickets and gas vouchers for someone needing on-going treatment several days a week at a mainland hospital
  • Acupuncture treatment for a woman with chronic pain
  • Rental of a knee scooter

If you live in the Coupeville area, a similar grassroots organization was formed in 2006 to serve people in your area. Please contact Small Miracles , PO Box 912, Coupeville, WA 98239. (360) 672-5651.
