A foundation that empowers Hope, Healing, and Strength.

Receiving a terminal illness is a life-altering moment, laden with fear and uncertainty. In the wake of this diagnosis, individuals often find themselves in financial stress, constrained by work, and unable to choose treatment.

Struggling with the relentless weight of financial stress, as the cost of treatment looms large and seemingly insurmountable.
Constrained by the need to work incessantly to meet their mounting financial obligations, leaving precious little time for cherished moments with family and friends.
Grappling with the heart-wrenching dilemma of forgoing treatment due to the overwhelming financial burdens, a decision that may, tragically, shorten their life expectancy.

TriUnity Foundation is here for the journey.

Uncover the heart of our mission: Download the story behind the inspiration to create an unprecedented grant offering and learn about our core values.

The fear and uncertainty that come with a terminal illness can overwhelm your physical, emotional, and financial health. We provide meaningful relief for your most urgent financial needs, and nurture the hope, healing, and strength you'll need in this difficult season of life.

Financial distress reduces quality of life, increases anxiety and depression, and can lead to greater mortality.

African-Americans and other minorities face higher treatment costs due to racial disparities in access to cancer screenings and other preventative health measures.

Reducing debt, meeting monthly expenses, and boosting financial capability all improve the mental and physical health of patients facing serious illnesses.

"As we grow and evolve, one thing won’t: Our commitment to making a meaningful difference which means we will be intentional about knowing and understanding what’s important to the individual so that we can make a deeper impact through deeper connections."

Bernie Perryman, Batteries Plus Bulbs Owner, District 14A MN House Representative, Cancer Survivor

“This is so different than anything I’ve been involved in.”

“This is one of the boldest steps taken by a credit union – EVER. Few want to do the work because it’s a hard space to step into when your member is in the worse season of their life. This Foundation will help that member not only survive but it will help them build a legacy.”

We know this is the worst season of your life and that you want to concentrate on your relationships and your life. So you can focus there, we’ve created an opportunity for you to be able to do that by relieving the financial burden that you’re facing.

We understand that filling out one more piece of paperwork can be daunting, so we've designed the application process to accommodate various needs. Here’s how we do it:

A short application for assistance of $2,500.
A slightly longer application for assistance of $10,000.

We believe that when the strain of debt is removed, you can focus on hope, healing, and strength.
