Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients

The Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients, part of the Ray of Hope Cancer Foundation, is dedicated to supporting individuals in Clifton, CO who are facing the dual challenges of cancer treatment and financial hardship. Our mission is to provide vital financial assistance to help eligible adult and pediatric patients cover their essential daily needs while undergoing or shortly after cancer treatment. We offer grants that require medical verification from a healthcare professional, ensuring that support is directed to those who truly need it. Monthly applications are carefully reviewed, with a focus on financial necessities and personal situations, particularly for those who lack adequate insurance and are at or below the poverty level. Recipients may receive up to $750 for adults and $1,000 for pediatric patients on a one-time annual or twice-lifetime basis. In urgent situations, we also provide emergency grants that can be processed within 48 hours to ensure immediate support for caregivers and patients in crisis. Our commitment is to deliver compassionate assistance to those in need during their most challenging times.
