Grant Opportunities

In honor of Nancy Phlegar’s spirit and fight against a brain cancer, the NEPM Foundation is dedicated to helping others achieve better outcomes and support families as they work towards recovery. Through grant opportunities, we are helping families navigate difficult times.

For many families the struggle with brain cancers to cover financial obligations beyond medical care is overwhelming. Our goal is to help alleviate some of those worries for those having troubles making ends meet for non-medical expenses. No family should have to choose between rent, food, transportation, utilities, or medical care.

Partnership

Family Reach and NEPM are working together to help cover non-medical expenses, including mortgage/rent payments, utilities, groceries, and transportation for brain cancer patients and their families.
