The program supports patients with cancer, multiple sclerosis or rheumatoid arthritis who are unable to afford or access food or nutritional needs due to COVID-19. Qualified patients will receive a one-time grant in the amount of $500 to cover groceries, food delivery or pick up, and medically tailored meals and can request complimentary delivery of food and other critical supplies directly to their place of residence by one of Team Rubicon’s Greyshirt volunteers. Eligible patients include those who are undergoing active treatment, scheduled to begin treatment in 60 days, or have been in treatment in the last 6 months. Each patient must also be a US citizen or permanent resident, residing in the US or a US territory.
