Material Assistance:
Accomplished through their four Regional Centers where Regional Directors work with volunteers to collect and distribute donated groceries, toys, clothing, and household items as needed. Contributions from corporations, local businesses, families and civic associations help them to continue to make a difference and help to preserve the families quality of life.
Financial Aid:
Emergency funds are available for ECF families who find themselves in a financial crisis. These Funds help with basic services that a family needs to survive, such as rent or utilities. Sometimes, these funds reimburse the family for meals while they were in the hospital with their child. Tragically, in some incidents, funds are available for families who are unable to meet the high costs of memorial services.
Mission Statement: The mission of the Emmanuel Cancer Foundation is to provide New Jersey families faced with pediatric cancer a place to turn for comfort and support through professional in-home counseling and a uniquely tailored package of assistance. We offer 24-7 counseling for the entire family, advocacy on behalf of the families with insurance companies, medical providers, landlords, etc.; material support such as food, clothing, toys, household items and birthday and holiday gifts; and emergency financial relief.
