Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients

The Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients, operated by the Ray of Hope Cancer Foundation in Breckenridge, CO, is dedicated to providing vital financial assistance to individuals facing the overwhelming burdens of cancer treatment. Our mission is to support adult and pediatric patients who are actively undergoing treatment or have recently completed it by helping them meet basic daily needs that may be compromised by steep medical costs. We offer grants that prioritize those with significant financial challenges, often lacking adequate health insurance and living below the poverty line. Each month, we carefully review applications to provide one-time grants of $750 for adults and $1,000 for children, ensuring that assistance is tailored to individual circumstances and urgent needs. In cases of immediate crises, our program can also facilitate emergency grants, which can be approved in as little as 48 hours, based on the recommendation of a caseworker. We invite eligible patients to apply and find relief during this challenging time.
