Grant Information

Do you need help with medical expenses from a Colon Cancer diagnosis? Do you need to be screened for Colon Cancer because you have symptoms but you can’t afford to?The Figg Tree grant program can help. This program is available to those battling Colon Cancer, or have battled it, or those that want to prevent it by being screened. Apply for our grant program by filling out the forms below and sending to the Foundation for approval. While we would like to approve every request, we do have to approve based on financial need. Please note that assistance could be delayed due to funding as we rely solely on donations. We keep every application on file so that as funding increases we reach out to those in need. Since we are reliant on funding from donations we cannot guarantee the timing of any assistance. At this time we do have a current waiting list for 2010. The best way to reach our organization is by email at figgtree@hotmail.com.
