CIRF helps to provide short-term, tailored assistance to people suffering from chronic illnesses that are severe enough keep them from performing daily tasks during symptomatic periods.

We help people regardless of whether or not they have a firm diagnosis or are already receiving assistance. Have Medicaid? Great! Still can’t pay rent? We understand are here to help. At CIRF, we believe that with some assistance, chronically ill patients can experience a higher quality of life. We do not give cash or checks; instead, we provide assistance through prepaid services. For example, we provide gift certificates or vouchers for things like grocery stores, pharmacies, and personal care services. We work directly with your utilities providers, landlord/mortgage institutions, and other providers to pay for services up front. We help people whose chronic illness keeps them from performing daily tasks and, due to circumstances beyond their control, require short-term financial assistance. CIRF aims to help as many people as possible; if the need is there, our goal is to satisfy that need. We tailor services to fit your specific needs.
