Financial Assistance Funds

At Financial Assistance Funds in Aberdeen, MD, we are dedicated to supporting children with special healthcare needs and their families by providing essential financial assistance. Our program is designed to alleviate the burden of medical costs—including prescriptions, medical bills, and durable medical equipment—as well as non-medical expenses like home and vehicle modifications, clothing, and diapers. We also assist with healthcare-related travel, including transportation to medical facilities and lodging for families, ensuring they can access the care they need. In addition, we offer support for daily living costs, such as food and utility bills. Grants of up to $500 per family per year are available, with special consideration for requests beyond this amount, subject to Board approval. We evaluate applications on a first-come, first-served basis and aim to provide timely support, typically notifying recipients within 15 business days of request submission.
