White Dress Cares is a community-centered initiative of The White Dress Project, dedicated to supporting women impacted by uterine fibroids. Through programs that provide financial help, emotional support and meaningful connection, it ensures no woman has to walk this journey alone.
The White Dress Cares Patient Fund is a patient-assistance program that provides financial support to eligible women facing out-of-pocket costs for medically necessary fibroid care. Funds are paid directly to approved participating healthcare providers to reduce the financial barriers that can delay or prevent treatment, helping patients receive timely treatment and improve their quality of life.

Why?
Because your health should never depend on your bank account.
This is a direct response economic intervention for women who need care.
A 2015 study found that “the total costs, sum of direct and indirect costs, ranged from $11,717-$25,023 per patient per year, after diagnosis or surgery among patients with uterine fibroid tumors.” Adjusted for inflation, today, that is $16,307-$34,825 per patient per year.
