Patients facing health crises often require non-clinical support, such as financial assistance, transportation, childcare, and emotional support, which can be difficult to ask for and coordinate among friends and family.

WiTT aims to remove the stigma associated with asking for assistance by providing a structured and transparent way for patients to express their needs and for donors to contribute in ways that are most helpful.
