Everyday People

Helping Hand

We are dedicated to extending a helping hand anywhere to anyone in need throughout the State of Florida. The Foundation provides financial grants to reduce the hardships of everyday people and their immediate families. Foundation assistance for individuals is intended for those qualified recipients who have experienced true emergencies, disasters, medical crises, or other personal hardships and tragedies which require a measure of temporary financial relief.

The Foundation’s Everyday People hardship grants are not intended to provide long-term, continuous relief. Based upon the available information provided, the Foundation Board of Trustees or their designee(s) will determine the grant amount and will make every effort within its resources to assist those who are in dire need, however, unfortunately we cannot help all who request assistance. Every case depends on the facts and circumstances peculiar to that case, and is defined by the totality of the circumstances.
