MoreFor4, Inc.

All M44 decision-making, policy positions, planning, and programming fit within a sweeping national effort we call The MoreFor4 #NoPainCampaign. Our bold, long-term initiative centers on the simple premise that cancer-related pain is not just limited to physical symptoms of the disease and the toxic side effects of treatment. Other devastating forms of PAIN include the profound consequence of myriad social determinants of health—such as poverty, systemic racism and other forms of discrimination, lack of support systems, isolation, and the erosion of a sense of true belonging. As no one should navigate the complex challenges of a Stage IV cancer diagnosis alone, our unique online community—MoreCorps—will offer a place of support and belonging. This part is relatively easy to do. Conversely, the utter lack of fiscal and other support systems in today’s landscape DEMANDS transformative change. And so… where solutions already exist, we shall find them. Where nothing exists, M44 will harness our relentless “can-do” spirit and programmatic expertise to rectify shortcomings to, at very least, reduce pain… how and where we can.

To begin, we have identified seven initial programs that will be introduced incrementally over coming years—starting in 2025: CannaCares, Rapid Response, HomeMatters, JEDI Action, MoreCorps, IMAGINE – Stage4 JobCorps, and the M44 Legacy Store. Programming is deeply interconnected, as someone coming to M44 for help may benefit from each of these programs simultaneously.
