Grant Program

The American Children's Cancer Benevolence Fund (ACCBF) is dedicated to supporting families in Galesburg, IL, who are facing the challenges of childhood cancer. Through our Grant Program, we offer crucial financial assistance to families with a child currently battling cancer and to those who are cancer survivors within four years of remission. Our support can cover essential needs such as housing expenses, utilities, food, medical treatment, prescriptions, transportation to medical appointments, lodging for out-of-town care, and even funeral expenses if needed. Each benevolence request is carefully evaluated on a case-by-case basis, ensuring that assistance aligns with available funds and the specific circumstances of the family. We aim to alleviate some of the financial burdens during these challenging times by paying service providers directly, allowing families to focus on what truly matters—their child's health and recovery.
