About This Grant:
The Dean Snell Cancer Foundation strives to meet multiple and pressing transportation needs to ensure ongoing treatment for cancer patients at NECS in Topsham. Gas cards and emergency taxi vouchers enable patients to get to doctor's appointments and treatment. Assistance with travel and hotel expenses to out-of-state hospitals provides the opportunity for often crucial consultations and additional treatment. Assistance with car repairs, auto insurance and car payments are important when the ability to continue working makes it difficult for patients and their families to manage unexpected and everyday living expenses.
