Lantheus – Charitable Contributions Program

2 Min Read

Organization: Lantheus

About the Funder

Lantheus considers requests for charitable contributions from a broad range of nonprofit organizations. Contributions are permitted only when the recipient is a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Lantheus distinguishes charitable contributions from medical education support. If your request is connected to a medical education activity, you must use the appropriate medical education application type instead of the Charitable Contributions pathway.

What This Program Supports

Lantheus charitable contributions are intended to support general fundraising efforts run by eligible charitable organizations.

Eligible Support Types

Corporate charitable contributions connected to an organization’s general fundraising effort
Donations issued to institutions with a valid Federal Tax ID (checks made to institutions only)

Important rules

Requests must be tied to a general fundraising effort, not a request directed only to Lantheus.
The request must come from the organization itself, not from an individual physician, pharmacist, or healthcare professional who is not an employee of the charity.
A contribution may not be tied in any way to past, present, or future prescribing, purchasing, or recommending of any drug. Any evidence suggesting this will result in rejection and the request may not be resubmitted.

Medical Education Requests

If your request is in connection with a medical education activity (even if your organization is a 501(c)(3)), you must apply using one of these application types instead:

Independent Medical Education (IME)
Grand Rounds or Journal Clubs

Eligibility

Eligible applicants include:

501(c)(3) charitable organizations (with IRS designation)

Requests must:

Be submitted by the organization (not an outside individual)
Align with a general fundraising effort
Provide required documentation and organizational details

What You’ll Need to Apply

Before submitting, be prepared with:

Organization’s annual budget
Organization details including Federal Tax ID (EIN)
IRS 501(c)(3) designation letter
Statement of charitable mission
Valid email for communications

Description of the fundraising activity (if applicable)

Compliance note: Applicants may undergo screening for compliance with federal law and agree to cooperate with federal, state, and local law enforcement as part of the submission process.

Funding Amounts

Lantheus does not publish fixed award amounts. Support is determined based on internal review and compliance requirements.

Deadline

No specific deadline provided. Submit as early as possible to allow time for review and compliance screening.
