Financial Assistance
Living Journeys provides direct financial grants to Gunnison County residents to help relieve the financial burden of a cancer diagnosis. To apply for Financial Assistance, you must be a Gunnison County Resident or live close enough to receive primary care at Gunnison Valley Hospital (Lake City, Powderhorn included).
Our financial grants committee meets quarterly to review all submitted financial grant applications applications.
Applications may be submitted at any time, but are due quarterly:
- February 15,
- May 15,
- August 15,
- and November 15
All financial disbursements are made early in the following month.
The first step is to download and fill out the financial grant application. You can fill it out on your computer and return it to info@livingjourneys.org, print it out and return it to us at our office at 300 Belleview, Suite 3B, or via mail it to PO Box 2024, Crested Butte, CO 81224. Sending us photos via text is also an option.
Please call (970) 349-2777 for assistance or if you have questions when filling out an application.
If you are going through a financial emergency and are at risk of losing your home or transportation, please contact us ASAP for immediate help.
…Then one day, out of the clear blue, we received an anonymous donation for thousands of dollars. It was generosity beyond anything I had ever known; generosity that my family and I desperately needed. For years, I wondered who it was who had shown me such kindness. I silently thanked him or her every day of my treatment, which eventually became my recovery.
When Living Journeys grants us money the support goes much deeper than financial. It shows me that you care about me being here and that I’m a worthy cause.
