Deadline: TBA
The Multiple Sclerosis Foundation is accepting applications from individuals with multiple sclerosis across the United States for the Brighter Tomorrow grant program.
The goal of the grant is to provide individuals with MS with goods or services (valued at up to $1,000 per recipient) to improve their quality of life by enhancing safety, self-sufficiency, comfort, or well-being. Recipients of the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation's Brighter Tomorrow grant have received car repairs, ramps, wheelchairs, walkers, eyeglasses, computers, appliances, televisions, furniture, therapeutic equipment, hobby supplies, retreats, and various home modifications.
To qualify, a person must be 18 years of age or older and diagnosed with MS, or the parent of a minor child diagnosed with MS, and be a permanent U.S. resident. They must not have any other means of fulfilling the need they express.
Applicants are asked to provide basic personal and financial information, and to write a brief essay of 100 words or less to describe how the grant would help them have A Brighter Tomorrow.
Applications for the next program cycle will be accepted as of July 1, 2008. Applications will be made available at the foundation's Web site.
