Anyone who has ever had to deal with cancer understands the staggering financial burden the disease imposes on patients, their families and their caregivers. Our Foundation helps ease this burden by providing financial assistance grants to help with basic needs like rent, mortgages and utilities. Our Family and Patient Assistance Grants are intended to be a source of short-term relief for family members who are unable to work to provide the necessary care for their loved ones who are terminally ill with advanced stage 4 cancer.

Grant Recipients are nominated for a grant by a vast network of hospice care nurses & social workers. Our Board of Directors evaluates each situation and determines the amount to be disbursed, and the length of support given. Once the applicant is eligible for our grant, we issue checks directly to the patient's landlord or mortgage holder, utility companies, or service provider.
If our Foundation was chosen by My Giving Circle to be a recipient of your grant, it would allow us to reach a larger number of families in need throughout Riverside and San Bernardino Counties and help them for more than just one month.  It would be ideal to help the families that come to us for up to three months, to help them get back on their feet, while giving the caregiver and family members the opportunity to be with their loved ones through the completion of their journey.
