Financial Aid Fund
The Colorectal CareLine Financial Aid Fund provides financial assistance through a small grant program for colorectal patients in need of debt crisis assistance. Financial assistance in the amount of $400.00 is available to colorectal cancer patients with specific treatment related expenses and a family income less than $75,000.00 annually. Patients must provide a verification of diagnosis and income as well as a documented need for financial assistance. Small grants are available for:
- Temporary housing assistance as a result of treatment
- Reimbursement for transportation to and from treatment
- Childcare necessitated by treatment
- Food costs incurred as a result of out of town treatment
Applications are completed by a Colorectal CareLine Financial Aid Fund Counselor via telephone. The program accepts calls Monday-Friday from 8:30 AM EST to 5:00 PM EST and can be reached at 1-866-657-8634
