Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients

The Essential Needs Grant Program for Cancer Patients in Silverthorne, CO, is dedicated to alleviating the financial burden faced by patients undergoing cancer treatment. Our program provides critical financial assistance for basic daily needs, ensuring that both adult and pediatric patients can focus on healing without the overwhelming stress of medical costs. To apply, individuals will need medical verification from a healthcare professional involved in their treatment, such as a social worker or nurse. Each month, our Grants Committee reviews submissions, prioritizing those based on financial needs and personal circumstances. Most applicants often struggle with inadequate medical insurance, living at or below the poverty level. We offer grants up to $750 for adult patients and $1,000 for pediatric patients, typically available once annually or twice in a lifetime. Additionally, in urgent situations, we can provide emergency grants that are processed within 48 hours to ensure timely support. We are here to provide a helping hand when it matters most, standing alongside patients during their fight against cancer.
