Financial Assistance Funds

At Financial Assistance Funds in Waukegan, IL, we are dedicated to supporting children with special health care needs and their families through essential financial assistance. Our program is designed to alleviate the burdens of medical costs, covering expenses such as prescriptions, medical bills, and durable medical equipment. Additionally, we provide support for non-medical expenses, including home and vehicle modifications, clothing, diapers, and more. We also assist with healthcare utilization costs, enabling families to travel to medical facilities and secure lodging during critical times. Daily living costs, such as food, utilities, and transportation, can also be addressed. Grants are available up to $500 per family each year, with requests reviewed in the order they are received. For larger requests, approval from our Board is necessary, which may take additional time. We are here to foster hope and ensure that families have the resources they need during challenging times.
