MMC Members Supporting the Robbie Foundation in Maine

The Robbie Foundation primarily helps children diagnosed with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. It provides financial assistance to families who struggle with the high costs of medical care, travel, and daily living expenses during treatment. This support eases the burden on families, allowing them to focus on their child’s health rather than financial stress.

For example, the foundation offers grants that cover transportation to specialized hospitals, which are often located far from home. This practical help ensures children receive the best possible care without families worrying about how to afford the trip.

Collaborations with Healthcare Providers

The foundation works closely with hospitals, clinics, and healthcare professionals in Maine. This collaboration helps identify families in need quickly and ensures that assistance reaches them promptly. Healthcare providers often refer patients to the Robbie Foundation, knowing the foundation can provide essential support beyond medical treatment.

This partnership strengthens the overall care system for children with serious illnesses. It creates a safety net that addresses both medical and non-medical challenges families face during difficult times.

How to Get Involved

The Robbie Foundation relies on donations and volunteers to continue its work. People interested in supporting the cause can participate in fundraising events, donate directly, or volunteer their time. Every contribution helps extend the foundation’s reach and impact.

For those living in Maine, joining local events or spreading awareness about the foundation’s mission can make a significant difference. Community involvement strengthens the support network for families facing health crises.
