The Taking Steps for Cancer Fund
The Taking Steps for Cancer Fund, operated by Mountain Family Center, exists to ease the financial burden of treatment for Grand County residents battling cancer. There is no cancer treatment available in Grand county and patients must often travel long distances, up to several times per week, for medical care. Gas, lodging, meals and other expenses can add up, and the Cancer Fund is available to help cover these expenses.
Assistance is available regardless of income or insurance status, and each client can receive up to $5,000 per year in reimbursement.
To find out more about the assistance offered through the Cancer Fund, please call 970-557-3186, email katie@mountainfamilycenter.org, or submit an online request (below).
The Cancer Fund is made possible by the hard work of the volunteer group Taking Steps for Cancer (“Taking Steps”). Taking Steps organizes several annual events to create awareness and support.
