Financial Assistance

We are deeply grateful for the overwhelming response to our 2025 Financial Assistance Program.

Due to the high volume of applications and the full allocation of available funds, we have reached our capacity and are closing the program for the remainder of the year (2025). This program was established to alleviate the financial burdens associated with pediatric IBD, including medical expenses, dietary needs, and transportation costs. The enthusiastic participation underscores the significant need within our community. We understand that financial challenges persist, and we remain committed to supporting our community. We encourage you to explore our other resources, such as our Gutsy Groups (in-person support) and Virtual Villages (online support), which offer connection and assistance to families navigating pediatric IBD. We plan to reopen the Financial Assistance Program in 2026 and will provide updates on our website and social media channels. Thank you for being a part of the IBD Connect community. Together, we continue to support, engage, and empower families affected by IBD!
