About Family Grants
At Family Grants, based in Portland, ME, we provide essential financial assistance to families who have endured the loss of a loved one to breast cancer. Our mission is to alleviate the financial and logistical challenges these families face, offering support tailored to their unique needs. We cover a wide range of expenses including summer camp fees, childcare services, counseling, tutoring, and extracurricular activities, ensuring children have opportunities to thrive despite their circumstances. Additionally, we assist caregivers with services such as vocational training, meal support, and wellness classes. Our grants aim to empower families during their time of need by paying third-party service providers directly, allowing us to respond promptly, typically within 3-4 weeks. We welcome applicants from New England who find themselves facing immediate financial difficulties due to the impact of cancer, and who have not accessed other financial support. Together, we strive to rebuild lives and foster a sense of community and resilience.
