How You Can Make A Difference
An innovative solution to an urgent member need
and we need your support
Time is running out for individuals facing terminal illness, and your contribution can make all the difference. Help us eliminate the financial strain for those facing terminal illness so they can focus on what truly matters — their relationships and their lives.
Join hands with us in making a profound impact. Your partnership and contribution will bring hope, healing and strength to those in their most challenging moments.
How Does it Work?
Your members can apply for grants, awarded by a dedicated Advisory Committee comprised of individuals with personal experiences in caring for or facing a terminal illness diagnosis. These grants cover essential payments like their home, car, or credit cards.
This is a straightforward solution, eliminating the need to create your own program. There’s no complex process or exhausting regulatory IRS restrictions for you. Plus, you get a brand Marketing Kit that positions you as the guiding force in making such a meaningful difference.
Our goal is to give back at least 90% of your donation directly to members in need.

Making a Meaningful Difference
In 2021, the American Cancer Society uncovered alarming statistics revealing that financial challenges faced by cancer patients and survivors in the United States. However, these challenges extend beyond cancer to other life-threatening illnesses that members may unfortunately be experiencing.
Impact of Financial Strain on Treatment
A systemic review in 2020 emphasized the critical nature of timely treatment. For example, delaying breast cancer surgery for 1,000 women results in:
- 4-week delay: 10 additional deaths
- 8-week delay: 20 additional deaths
- 12-week delay: 31 additional deaths
A Debt Spiral
There is a concerning “debt spiral” experienced by patients facing terminal illnesses, making them nearly 300% more likely to declare bankruptcy. Those who declare bankruptcy due to financial toxicity have a 79% greater risk of early mortality.
Financial Toxicity and Racial Disparities
The financial toxicity of life-threatening illnesses is a burden disproportionately borne by minority groups. Patients from these groups are more likely to face financial hardships, highlighting disparities ingrained in the U.S. healthcare system.
Let's build a stronger, more compassionate community — together.
