I just want to say how incredibly grateful I am to the Sanborn Foundation for their help during my time of need. I was completely overwhelmed when I was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer. It’s been a whirlwind year – two rounds of chemotherapy/immunotherapy, two surgeries and then radiation, during which the COVID19 outbreak occurred. But the Sanborn Foundation has been so helpful with medical bills and other expenses. I just wanted to reach out and say how grateful I am for all that you have done.

I wanted to send my deepest, heartfelt thanks for all financial support I was given during a very difficult diagnosis and recovery this year.
Eight months post-surgery, I am fully back to life… working, swimming, travel, time with friends and family.
The support I got from Sanborn was invaluable, and made an uncertain time just a bit easier.
M.S.
Thank you! Thank you! I passed the Sanborn information along to a friend and within two days they were approved and a huge bill was handled. The immediate relief and kindness that was provided to the family is amazing. I’m so grateful.

Contacting the Sanborn Foundation was a watershed moment for me: I stepped out of the thickets of confusion surrounding a medical emergency and onto an overlook showing the possibility of a viable path ahead. Their calm support, friendliness, professional precision, breadth of knowledge, and welcoming demeanor were a marvelous expression of an institution committed to practical service to those facing the financial and emotional consequences of cancer.
Sanborn is such a gift to all the people who have cancer and need treatment. It’s a blessing not have to worry about the cost of bills and transportation. We are so grateful and blessed!
There really are no words to express our tremendous appreciation to you and your team and to the incredible generosity of Mr. George Sanborn. I read from your site that he originally wanted to build a hospital in Arlington. If he only knew the impact he has had. If I ever had another child – which I won’t – I’d name the baby George!

Being awarded a grant took the weight of worry about financing my husbands care off of my shoulders. Thank you for the work you do and the care you show when you do it.

Wow, it is so amazing and kind of the foundation to approve my grant. This will be so tremendously helpful- can’t even express how helpful…and it just fills my heart with appreciation and gratitude (sounds corny but true!)

The Sanborn Foundation has helped me greatly during a long treatment period. The reliable transportation to and from the hospital, which took the stress out of my treatment and the precise arrival time, no financial burden, and wonderful companionship of very caring people has made me very comfortable during this long recovery period. I am very grateful that Arlington provides this wonderful program.

I would like to thank you for all that you do for all Arlington residents, it truly is an amazing asset in our community. It takes a village to heal and the Sanborn’s assistance is invaluable to its beneficiaries trying to do so. The funds from Sanborn feel like a warm hug and provide a silver living and hope in an otherwise unfortunate situation.
