Thank you again, Sanborn. Every time we tell a family member how amazing your foundation is their jaws just drop! We are so grateful for all the help you provide.

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.

The funds from the Sanborn have meant a tremendous amount to me and my family. We have been able to focus on me getting better instead of on the financial stress, in addition to the overwhelming situation we have found ourselves in.

I was blind-sided by a diagnosis with a malignant tumor in my colon which spread to my liver. Immediately, my family and friends and healthcare team shared various resources that help people in situations like mine. Yet, without a doubt, the Sanborn Foundation tops this list. By far. This hidden gem of a foundation treated me—and still treats me—with dignity and supports my healing process above and beyond what I could ever imagine. I received a very generous grant from the Sanborn Foundation for my medical needs and an added stipend to be used for integrative therapies…I consider the Sanborn Foundation to be one of the gifts received as to why I am healing so well. From the bottom of my healing heart, “thank you.”

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.

I have been struggling with breast cancer off and on since 2009 and Sanborn has helped me tremendously along the way.

My illness kept me from working full-time. As a single parent, it has not always been easy to make ends meet, but you have helped to bridge the gap.

“Relaxation” frees the heart.
“Courage” opens the heart.
“Compassion” fills the heart.
Thank you so very much for giving me the gift of all three.
Please find a letter of sincere appreciation + gratitude. Please count on me to help give the Sanborn Foundation the recognition it deserves.
With many thanks,

I can’t say enough laudatory things about the Sanborn Foundation. Knowing that the cabs will get me to and from my lengthy appointments in Boston is reassuring—one less concern during treatments. Without the Foundation’s support, [staff’s] kindness and ride-arranging, and the drivers, keeping my appointments wouldn’t be possible. I am grateful for the program and their help.

We are so grateful to the Sanborn Foundation for all of your help during my dad’s final months. Because of you, we were able to keep my parents together during this time. You have a wonderful organization and we will be forever thankful.
