Financial Assistance for families

The Amanda-Hope Medical Assistance Program

This fund provides financial aid to families in Maryland who have children with Down syndrome and a diagnosis of leukemia. The challenges that these families will face are tremendous – both emotionally and financially – with long hospitalizations, countless days spent in clinic, and parents and siblings worried and stretched thin. Our support for these children and their families through the Amanda-Hope Fund provides both monetary assistance to help make up for lost wages and medical expenses as well as the reassurance that they are remembered by our community during this difficult time.
