The Adam Michael Rosen Foundation’s mission is to help fight cancer by supporting families and patients afflicted by this disease.
A $100,000 grant to Brain Tumor Network for social services for brain cancer patients shows the Adam Michael Rosen Foundation Inc. putting its largest recent award behind direct support for people facing brain cancer, not only research. The foundation’s mission centers on helping fight cancer by supporting families and patients affected by the disease, and its grant programs combine that patient-facing work with scientific cancer research and dog rescue. Recent institutional grants show that it funds both public charities and governmental agencies, while its patient assistance program also extends direct help to individuals and families during treatment. The foundation’s giving reflects a mix of health-related support and animal welfare, with a smaller grant to Penny Nelson for health care expenses alongside its larger institutional award. Across the provided records, the foundation appears to use grants for case-specific needs, social services, and broader charitable purposes tied to cancer support and research. That combination makes it a funder with both direct-assistance and institutional grantmaking roles.
In brain cancer support, the foundation gave $100,000 to Brain Tumor Network for social services for brain cancer patients. That grant aligns with its emphasis on patient and family support, including care coordination, logistical help, psychosocial support, and out-of-pocket expense relief for people with brain tumors. The foundation also makes direct patient assistance grants for cancer-related expenses, including help with monthly bills and mortgage payments during treatment; a 2025 grant to Penny Nelson for health care expenses fits that pattern. On the research side, its stated focus includes scientific cancer research conducted in the public interest, including brain tumor research and neuro-oncology. Animal welfare is another recurring theme, with dog rescue programs named alongside cancer-related grantmaking in its institutional programs.
The two largest recent grants are $100,000 and $6,000, with a simple two-grant spread that suggests a mix of major institutional support and smaller case-specific aid. The foundation is a private foundation and makes grants to Section 501(c)(3) public charities and governmental agencies, while also operating a patient-and-family assistance path for individuals. The records show both one-time support for health care expenses and grants tied to charitable, scientific, and educational purposes. An application route is listed for patient and family assistance, and that program accepts unsolicited requests.
