About Pardee Cancer Treatment Fund of Isabella County
Pardee Cancer Treatment Fund of Isabella County directs its giving to cancer patients’ immediate treatment costs, with grants flowing to hospitals, patient insurance premiums, doctors, pharmacies, and patient portions of medical bills. The pattern is clear in the recent grants list: awards are tied to medical expense relief rather than research, advocacy, or general operating support.
The largest recent grant, $211,550 in 2024, went to Other Hospitals in Michigan for medical expenses. Another major award, $178,447 in 2026, also went to Other Hospitals for the same purpose. Those hospital payments sit alongside grants to Patient Insurance Premiums, including $104,549 in 2025 and $90,569 in 2024, showing that the fund covers both institutional care costs and the out-of-pocket expenses that can block access to treatment.
The fund also appears to support a broad set of treatment-related providers. Recent awards went to Other Doctors, Pharmacies, and Medical Expenses categories, with amounts ranging from small payments to six-figure grants. That mix points to short-term financial assistance centered on keeping cancer care moving for patients in Isabella County.

Smaller grants to Medical Expenses and Patient Portion categories show that the fund addresses shared costs and individual balances as part of cancer care support.

The fund gives repeatedly across multiple years, with recurring categories appearing in 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026.
