Grants

Money to help with what ALS costs

Grants and scholarships that pay for equipment, rides to clinic, respite care, prescriptions, home changes, children's needs and school. Each one shows when it's open, how much it gives and what to have ready. Pick your state to see local programs first.

Looking for Social Security, Medicare, VA benefits, equipment loans or free services? Those are under Services. Not sure what to have ready? See Get ready.

Before applying: funding is never guaranteed. Confirm availability, eligibility, amounts and deadlines directly with the program. "Up to" amounts are maximums, not promised payments.

Published deadlines

Only programs that publish a fixed date appear here. Rolling programs are open all year.
