Partnerships and Community

Gilead is dedicated to developing innovative medicines for life-threatening illnesses – and we recognize that it takes more than medicine to address challenges people and communities face.

That’s why we work with organizations around the world to launch programs that help improve access to care by eliminating barriers and advancing education.

Partnerships to Advance Education and Improve Cancer Care – Lift™

The Gilead Lift program was created to provide grant support to organizations working to improve the experience and education of patients, families, and caregivers exploring or receiving cutting-edge cancer therapies such as cell therapy. Cell therapy is a cutting-edge cancer treatment that builds upon decades of progress in developing medicines that modify a patient’s own immune cells to target cancer cells. We have taken an approach to improve education and awareness about cell therapy that is as innovative as the treatment itself.
