    About Pardee Cancer Treatment Fund of Gratiot County

    The Pardee Cancer Treatment Fund of Gratiot County concentrates its giving on direct support for cancer care in and around Alma, Michigan—primarily by funding local hospitals, physician services, and direct patient medical expense reimbursement. Most grants underwrite clinical treatment costs and patient financial assistance rather than research or broad public-health programs, indicating a hands-on, safety-net approach to help residents access care.

    About Pardee Cancer Treatment Fund of Gratiot County

    The Pardee Cancer Treatment Fund of Gratiot County directs nearly all of its grantmaking to cancer-related medical expenses for people in Gratiot County, with the largest recent awards going to Gratiot Community Hospital for patient care costs. Its recent records show a consistent pattern of paying treatment bills, supporting physicians, and reimbursing patients for out-of-pocket costs tied to cancer care. A 2025 grant of $173,623 to Gratiot Comm Hosp and a 2026 grant of $125,034 to the same hospital show how much of the fund’s support flows through local clinical providers rather than broad program grants. The fund also makes direct payments for categories such as patient reimbursements, transportation, insurance premiums, pharmacies, and other medical expenses, indicating a practical role in covering the costs that come with treatment. With annual grants of $265,262 and total assets of $587,531, the foundation operates at a local scale and gives entirely within Michigan. Its pattern centers on helping residents access cancer care close to home through restricted-purpose support.

    What Pardee Cancer Treatment Fund of Gratiot County Funds

    Cancer treatment support is the clearest theme in the fund’s giving. In 2024, it awarded $89,601 to Gratiot Comm Hosp for medical expense support, and in 2023 it gave $88,127 for the same purpose. The foundation also backs physician and clinical services: grants to Doctors totaled $51,529 in 2026 and $40,364 in 2025 for medical expenses, showing recurring support for the care team involved in treatment. Patient-side costs are another focus. The fund made grants labeled Patient Reimbursements, including $32,079 in 2024 and $31,140 in 2025, and it also covered transportation, pharmacies, and patient insurance premiums. These categories point to a grantmaker that supports both treatment delivery and the costs patients face while receiving care.

    How Pardee Cancer Treatment Fund of Gratiot County Gives

    Typical grants are modest to mid-sized relative to its largest awards, with a p25 of $7,308, a median of $21,207, and a p75 of $32,775. The recent record shows recurring support across multiple years rather than one-off gifts: the same hospital, physician, and patient-expense categories appear in 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026. Grants are restricted-purpose medical expense awards, and the fund also funds individuals through patient reimbursement and related support. It is not described as making program-related investments, and the activity pattern is local rather than broad or national.
