Salinas, CA, August 04, 2020 — Since 2007, Partnership for Children has provided transportation and financial assistance for children on the Central Coast who require access to compassionate care.

These efforts received a financial boost last week when the nonprofit earned a $3,000 grant from the Northern Monterey County Foundation.

The grant will support safe, reliable transportation to medical treatment for children living with serious illnesses in North Monterey County, along with financial and practical support for their families.

Partnership for Children qualified for the grant in light of its long history of advocating for children and families, providing both transportation and support services for children with life-threatening conditions living in Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Benito counties.

For children living with serious illness, access to medical care is essential. Partnership for Children helps by providing safe, free and reliable rides to medical appointments, as well as gas-card subsidies to ease financial burdens. PFC also provides financial subsidies to help pay for basic living expenses such as rent or utilities, and coordinate with hospital social workers as well as community partners to determine family needs.
