Program Financial Assistance for Families/Caregivers:

Financial Assistance for Families/Caregivers

  • Description:

    Rocky Strong, Inc is formed for the purpose of providing financial assistance to caregivers and their seriously ill family member currently in treatment and demonstrating financial need in Dutchess County NY and the surrounding area. Rocky Strong can help your family in the following areas: Transportation, Groceries, Hotels, Utilities, Gasoline.

    The unexpected diagnosis of a serious illness changes everything. Suddenly, everyday concerns give way to the hustle and bustle of doctor appointments and treatments. Groceries, utilities and gasoline expenses take a back seat to medications, insurance co-pays, etc. Unanticipated expenses like hotel bills and transportation (taxi fares, train fares, etc.) can be an added burden to young families whose lives have already been turned upside down. Rocky Strong hopes to ease that burden by helping with the expenses that can often be put on the back burner during a family member's serious illness. This objective is achieved through fundraisers, general donations, and other annual events.

    Our services, at this point in time, will focus on families with a child or children in the household 18 years old and under. ​If you feel you may qualify, please download the intake form and family service agreement.
