Family Relief Grant

 

Noelle’s Light provides need-based financial assistance grants, up to $3,500, to families receiving treatment or after-life services for a fetal or congenital condition. These grants cover non-medical costs, such as rent or mortgage payments, travel expenses, utility bills, funeral costs, and childcare expenses.

Applications must be completed with a licensed social worker. Eligible submissions are reviewed by our Grant Advisory Committee and, when approved, funds are issued directly to the designated vendor on behalf of the family.

ELIGIBILITY

To qualify for assistance, families must meet all of the following criteria:

  • Demonstrate a clear financial need.
  • Complete the application with verification from a licensed social worker.
  • Have not terminated/plan to terminate the pregnancy, if applicable.

Additionally, families must meet at least one of the following criteria:

  • Have an unborn child being actively treated for a fetal condition.
  • Have a born child/children, under the age of 12 months old, being actively treated for a congenital condition.
  • Have experienced a pregnancy loss, stillbirth, or infant death due to a known fetal or congenital condition.


Please Note: Due to the overwhelming demand for this program, cases where prematurity is the primary cause of medical complications are not eligible for funding. Eligible applications must have a confirmed fetal or congenital diagnosis — typically identified in utero or shortly after birth, and not solely resulting from premature birth. Before proceeding with the application, please confirm the applicant meets the above eligibility requirements.


Due to program demand, we have paused accepting new applications until September 2nd.
