Financial Assistance Funds

In Skagway, AK, Financial Assistance Funds is dedicated to supporting children with special healthcare needs and their families by alleviating the financial burden associated with medical care and related expenses. Our program provides essential financial assistance for medical costs such as prescriptions, medical bills, and durable medical equipment. We also assist with non-medical expenses, including home and vehicle modifications, clothing, and daily necessities like food and utilities. Furthermore, we understand the importance of healthcare access, which is why we cover travel and lodging costs incurred while seeking medical treatment. Each family can apply for grants of up to $500 per year, ensuring timely support tailored to their specific situations. We strive to address requests fairly and efficiently, aiming for a review period of 15 business days for each application, with all requests considered on a first-come, first-served basis. Together, we work to enhance the well-being of families navigating the challenges of special healthcare needs.
