Located in Woodland Park, CO, the Ray of Hope Cancer Foundation is dedicated to supporting cancer patients through its Essential Needs Grant Program. This vital initiative offers financial assistance to individuals battling cancer, aiming to alleviate the burden of everyday expenses exacerbated by medical costs. Each month, our Grants Committee prioritizes applications based on financial need and medical circumstances, ensuring that both adult and pediatric cancer patients in active treatment or recently post-treatment receive the support they require. Grants of $750 for adults and $1,000 for children are available on a one-time annual basis; in urgent cases, emergency grants can be approved within 48 hours with the recommendation of a caseworker. Our mission is to ensure that no patient has to endure the stress of basic needs while focusing on their health and recovery.
