Fund a Life Nfp

Our mission is to help individuals and families overcome emotional and financial obstacles caused by major life-altering circumstances by any means possible. This broad mission enables our team to fulfill a wide array of needs that people encounter through personalized grants directly to the people who need them most and need them now.

Founded by Mark Howell in 2015, Mark was once a 30-year-old Stage 4 Melanoma Cancer survivor who was given only weeks to live upon diagnosis. After insurance policy denial to cover exploratory treatment options, Mark's life was "funded" by his community who raised hundreds of thousands of dollars as he and his young family desperately sought out options for survival. Through the generous donations and support of so many, he was afforded the opportunity to extend his life long enough to eventually find a viable option to live by traveling to endless doctors across the US and without the financial constraints that so many needless lives are ultimately lost from. Without this financial and emotional support, the rare and aggressive form of cancer he courageously battled would have taken his life swiftly.

Today, Mark leads our organization dedicated to "funding lives" through all kinds of major life-altering circumstances. Our organization utilizes our creative spirits and community resources to continuously fundraise while seeking people in need faced with overwhelming obstacles in their life. Through concerted efforts of proactively fundraising and with such a broad mission, we can help provide financial aid instantly when and where needed to numerous individuals and families facing all types of challenges every year. Every action performed by Fund a Life and its team is in support of this effort.
