Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients

The Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients, operated by the Ray of Hope Cancer Foundation in Montrose, CO, is dedicated to alleviating the financial burdens faced by cancer patients struggling to meet their basic daily needs due to the staggering costs of medical care. Our program offers vital financial assistance, empowering adult and pediatric patients actively undergoing treatment or recently finished with their care to access necessary resources. Applications for our monthly grants require medical verification from healthcare professionals, and we prioritize those with limited insurance coverage and incomes at or below the poverty level. Grants typically provide $750 for adults and $1,000 for children, with special emergency grants available for urgent situations, approved within 48 hours based on caseworker recommendations. We are committed to supporting the most vulnerable during their toughest times, ensuring that financial hardships do not hinder their journey towards healing.
