Try looking at these web pages http://www.livestrong.org/site/c.jvKZLbMRIsG/b.1401911/k.26BD/LIVEstrongSTRONGstrong_SurvivoremCareem.htm \n\nhttp://www.cancercare.org/services.html\n\nAlso, go to your local unemployment office and department of social and health services and ask them for help. I've known some states that will pay for child care as well as health care and I know that some will pay for rehabilitation programs to help you find work.  Good luck and God bless you.

Apply for the christmas list at your local DHR office....otherwise known as the welfare office....also contact local churches to see what they may have to offer. You may want to check with the Community Service Program in your area (OCAP). Look up social services in the phone book and make some calls. \nBest of luck to you, and I hope your surgery goes well.

I'm not sure where you could get a grant, but I'm sure there are many organizations that would help you. A visit to a government office would probably help you more than anything else. \n\nBut most of all, welcome to America!

I'm not from the area, but I can suggest a couple agencies that might be able to refer you on to get you the help you need:\n\nThe United Way\nThe Salvation Army\nCatholic Charities\nProtestant Family Services\nLocal Churches\nJob & Family Services (they might have leads on agencies that can help).\n\nBest of luck to you, and happy holidays!

I'm guessing no, but I'd check with your local social services office.  Minnesota medical assistance covers dental work, I'm sure.  I don't think they accept donations though.

Look locally for scholarships through non-profits which are generally smaller but achievable.  Check your university departments updates board.  Ask professors.  Meet with a financial aid counselor.  Also if you have an unusual situation such as financial need, disadvantaged background (illness, minority status, first generation college student, left handed)  you can just google "cancer and scholarship".  You can find interesting pages that way.  Look into summer programs also...like NSF REU (google it)programs if you are a US citizen they pay great but are competitive.  Good luck

Hi, try contacting a Social Worker.  Also see if your hospital offers a Financial Assistance program.  Also I would check with the American Cancer Society to see if there is any information there too.  http://www.cancer.org/docroot/home/index.asp or 1-800-ACS-2345.   My thoughts & prayers are with you.

Freecycle sites are a place to start and also check with AARP in your town/city, call the colleges or tech institutes and see if they have programs that might help.  In my town the tech schools will help with supplies if you qualify and they have lots of different programs. \nCall the disability office and ask about retraining programs. They would like for you to get back in the work force.

Your best bet is to seek for private grants or grants from private foundations.\n\nThe best resource for this is Foundation Center http://www.fdncenter.org . They have a very good database covering all organizations giving grants and you can find foundations that are interested in supporting your type of cause. However, it's a subscription based website ($19.95 per month I think is the cheapest subscription price). But it certainly is worth the fee. You can subscribe one month, and make sure you get all the info you need and then stop the subscription.\n\nIf you want to try federal sources, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. \n\nCFDA has several ways to search for grants. I suggest you search by beneficiary and select Private Non Profit Organization and you can find listings of grants available http://12.46.245.173/pls/portal30/CATALOG.BROWSE_BENEF_RPT.show -- I don't see anything, though, of a grant that gives funds to buy buses for non profits.\n\n\n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html

Apply for federal and local grants. Ask for donations from local businesses. Ask computer stores if they'd be willing to donate equipment. Good luck! :)

Try the Lions Club in your area or The Department of the Blind.  The Knight's Templar also will help sometimes.  Also, the Workforce Development Force will sometimes help so the person can become employable again.  Many of the universities will help also.  \n\nI hope this helps.
