Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients

The Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients, part of the Ray of Hope Cancer Foundation in Calhan, CO, is dedicated to providing critical financial assistance to cancer patients facing challenges in meeting their daily requirements due to the high costs of treatment. We understand that navigating cancer care can strain personal finances, and that's why we offer monthly grants to both adult and pediatric patients actively undergoing treatment or within a month post-treatment. Our application process includes a Medical Verification from a healthcare professional, ensuring that aid reaches those in genuine need. Each month, our Grants Committee reviews applications, prioritizing support based on financial hardship and individual circumstances, with most applicants lacking sufficient medical insurance and living below the poverty line. Eligible adult patients can receive a one-time grant of $750, while pediatric patients may access up to $1,000, with the possibility of additional emergency grants granted swiftly through a caseworker's recommendation. We are here to ease burdens and provide hope during challenging times, ensuring patients can focus on their health with essential support.
