For over 35 years, the Charitable Grant Program has focused on addressing needs that are not covered by public benefits or other community resources. Missourians living with a disability who are at or below the Federal Poverty Level, and deemed disabled by the Social Security Administration can apply for a grant, worth up to $2,000. Grants are available to eligible individuals in all 114 counties. We work to improve the health, wellness and mobility of an often underserved population and embrace the opportunity to positively impact their lives.
