Financial assistance provided by Amanda Hope Rainbow Angels is made possible because of generous donors. It is important that these funds be available for Arizona families experiencing the greatest financial need during their child’s fight with cancer or another life-threatening illness. To apply for financial assistance, you must have received this link from your Social Worker. If you have, please complete the application below. Amanda Hope Rainbow Angels’ staff will contact you and your Social Worker after your application is received.
After you apply, please send a copy of your last bank statement and last pay stub to jackie@amandahope.com. We will need a copy for each caregiver listed on the application. If you are not receiving a pay stub, please submit a copy of your last DES installment. Your application will not be complete without this information. If you have any questions please reach out to Jackie at jackie@amandahope.org. Thank you!
Guidelines:
Any child diagnosed with cancer or another life-threatening disease on or before their 18th birthday and treated before their 21st birthday is eligible for consideration. Adults who relapse after their 18th birthday and who were not previously assisted are not eligible for services.
Children must be citizens or lawful, permanent residents of the U.S. who have maintained an uninterrupted residency for 12 months without prior history of the current illness. Noncitizen residents, applying for assistance, must have and provide Amanda Hope Rainbow Angels with a photocopy (front and back) of their I551 card (green card).
If a family possesses liquid assets in excess of $5,000, the Amanda Hope Rainbow Angels reserves the right to request a partial or complete spend-down prior to the approval of financial assistance.
All sections of the application must be completed thoroughly and accurately in order for the organization to review the request. Failure to provide complete and truthful information is a basis for denial.
In order to review the request for financial assistance, a hospital professional (doctor, nurse or social worker) must send a letter of support. This may be sent via email (jackie@amandahope.org) and should include the following:
The child’s full name, date of birth, and diagnosis
Past treatment information
Treatment plan for the next 60 days
Other community resources being utilized
Assistance may be requested for up to two months or 60 calendar days. At the end of this time, if additional assistance is needed, consideration will be given to those requests submitted in writing by a hospital professional. A new application is only necessary when the length of time between requests exceeds one year.
Financial assistance is not retroactive. Requests cannot be processed until all information is received.
