The Kelly Anne Dolan Memorial Fund lightens the burdens and lifts the spirits of families caring for children living with illnesses, disabilities, and injuries, while respecting the dignity of families in need and celebrating life.

We provide financial assistance and direct support for needs not covered by insurance and a variety of respite programs for families residing in or children receiving care in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware.

We also advocate for and provide educational resources to families nationwide.

Financial Assistance

Recognizing that insurance companies do not cover every cost to support children with complex medical needs, the Dolan Fund offers financial assistance. Our goal is to support meeting unmet needs for families by directly paying vendors for costs incurred when eligibility criteria is met.

Families are referred to the Dolan Fund via a secure, online portal by healthcare professionals within hospitals, social service agencies, medical offices, schools, and treatment centers.

Bills for essential needs that are not covered by medical insurance are submitted, along with basic information about the child’s condition and course of treatment.

Although they are often invisible to all but the family, financial side effects of serious childhood illness can be devastating. Your support enables us to provide assistance with expenses not covered by insurance, such as utilities (electric, water, phone, gas, cable), rent, car payments, adaptive equipment, and co-pays.
