Project Title: Family Assistance Program Expansion
Project Description:

IronMatt is respectfully requesting a $10,000 grant to support our Family Assistance Program for families living in the United States. Our Family Assistance program provides direct financial support for families who have a child undergoing treatment for brain and spinal cancers. We are connected to these families through our network of caring social workers and hospital administrators. While their child is in treatment, we pay families’ mortgages, rent, car payments, utility bills and travel expenses so they can focus on their child’s well being. We help families through their most difficult time, trying to ease their financial and emotional burden. We are one of only a few organizations that provides broad financial assistance to these families. Our goal is to increase fundraising revenue in order to help more children and families across the United States.

Total Project Budget: $750,000
