What is Fund This Life?

Fund This Life is built as an extension of our grant program. It gives us the ability to respond quickly when someone is facing an urgent need, bringing the community together to support a specific individual or family right when it matters most.

Every dollar goes directly to the recipient, making the impact immediate, personal, and powerful. It is not just about raising funds. It is about rallying around someone and reminding them they are not alone.

Immediate response

When a need is urgent, we move fast. Fund This Life campaigns launch quickly so support reaches people when they need it most.

Specific and personal

Every campaign is tied to a real person or family. Donors know exactly who they are helping and why.

Every dollar goes to the recipient

No overhead. No delay. 100% of what is raised goes straight to the individual or family it was raised for.

Active and Past Campaigns

In April 2025, she was diagnosed with acute liver failure and fought with extraordinary strength through surgeries and a bone marrow transplant. On October 30, 2025, Marie passed away surrounded by her family. This campaign gives her family the gift of healing together.

PREVIOUS Campaign

Janet V.

Janet faced a throat cancer diagnosis and the very real possibility of losing her home. What started with one person sharing her story quickly became a community showing up. St. Vincent de Paul, St. Pat's Church, and donors across the area came together to cover her lot rent, giving her a place to come home to as she walks through treatment. Because of this community, Janet no longer walks this road alone.

Know someone who needs support?

Fund This Life starts with a nomination. If you know an individual or family facing an urgent need, we want to hear from you. Our team reviews every submission and works quickly to determine how we can help.

The nomination form below is the same form used for our traditional grant program, because at Fund a Life, the process of showing up is always the same.
