Support organization
Team Bradley Bear provides limited financial assistance to families whose child is undergoing U.S. treatment for a brain tumor or another pediatric cancer, with brain-tumor patients first priority. The patient must have been under 18 at diagnosis, and a parent applies after confirming funds, attaching requested bills and a provider letter. Verified covered needs include rent or mortgage, utilities, groceries, medical or treatment costs, car payments or insurance, home and auto repairs, debts, and other reviewed expenses. A separate Arizona-only annual Dream Big Dreams program randomly selects one child or family for up to four tickets to a local outing. Financial assistance is contact-to-confirm because funding is limited; the next Dream application cycle and deadline are not published.
