Patients and families of patients living within the United States with a  mitochondrial disorder will be eligible to apply for grants.  There is no income eligibility to apply.

 

Grants up to $500 are awarded, based on need, to families who are struggling financially with costs associated with mitochondrial disease. Grants are awarded once per lifetime, per patient.  

 

Expenses that “promote health” or “provide relief” could include:

·         Medical costs not covered by insurance

·         Housing costs for families while patients are receiving treatment away from home

·         Costs for special equipment, services, or supplies

·         Costs of modifying a home, vehicle, or workspace

·         Costs of respite care or suitable recreational activities
