Apply for a Grant - As a Patient
In terms of the individual patient, typically we are receptive to grant requests for assistance with the little things to help ease the burden of every day treatment.
It is important to note that we do not give cash grants to individuals, nor do we cover the cost of medical treatments.
What we can do is to help with travel and accommodations, educational or entertainment needs, text books, toys, computers, clothes, and anything we can do to make people feel better.
Read some of the letters of thanks and you will get an idea of some of the assistance we have provided.
We also pride ourselves on being able to make quick and compassionate decisions. We understand that if a patient needs something, they usually need it quickly, and so while there is an application process, it is a relatively straightforward and we are always here to help you.
