Let Hope Grow - Our Story: Supporting ALS patients, caregivers, and families with resources, advocacy, and accessible solutions for a better quality of life.

Our Story

I’ve been there, so I understand. I made it, and you can too.

Let Hope Grow is committed to being a trusted resource serving ALS patients and their families in Pennsylvania by facilitating access to government and non-profit resources. In cases where additional financial resources are needed, caregivers can request reimbursements to support qualified out-of-pocket expenses. Qualified out-of-pocket expenses may include necessities for patients to receive care, such as handicap ramps, travel expenses, and medication expenses not covered by insurance.

Let Hope Grow serves The Greater Harrisburg Area and is currently focused on serving ALS patients and their caregivers. The non-profit is exclusively funded by private donors and led by a team of experienced volunteers. Organizations interested in partnering with Let Hope Grow should contact the Founder, Lura Sawyer.
