Services
HelpHOPELive works with families and volunteers throughout the United States to establish successful grass-roots fundraising campaigns in honor of individuals facing transplantation or for persons who have sustained a catastrophic injury (incl. spinal cord or traumatic brain). Funds raised are sent to and held by HelpHOPELive in Regional Restricted Funds in honor of patients. Funds are administered by HelpHOPELive and disbursed upon application and demonstration of financial need.
