The foundation collects applications for grants on an ongoing basis. Each month the board selects families to receive financial grants. If a family is not selected in the first month, they receive a gas card as a token of appreciation for taking the time to complete the application. Their application will continue to be considered each month until the family is selected or they have been considered for six months. A family is able to receive one grant in their six month application period.

The foundation provides outreach and support to families at hospitals throughout the state. The COVID-19 pandemic has hit hospitals hard and donations have decreased in general. We've been able to step in and help support the 4 main hospitals in the state. Monthly shipments of gas cards and gift cards have helped to relieve the added stress! These small tokens help to bring smiles to children and families who need it most.
Members of the foundation take part in numerous events throughout the community with the aim to bring attention and awareness to those affected by childhood cancer. We have partnered with many other organizations in the state to maximize our reach.
Since our first grant was given out in June of 2013, Colton's Cure Foundation has provided over $175,000 in direct grants to more than 700 families receiving care here in Wisconsin!
In addition to the direct family support, the Foundation has provided over $75,000 in items to support the hospitals and the patients they serve. These items include gas and gift cards, supplies for their Child Life programs, and toys and activities for their inpatient units.
In 2021, Colton's Cure eclipsed the $250,000 mark for support provided. We pride ourselves on the fact that we've been able to do this with an all-volunteer board. This allows us to direct support to those who need it most! To date, over 93% of donations we've brought in have gone directly to supporting our mission!
