My Nonprofit Reviews

After being in a freak bicycling accident in September 2020 I found myself with a huge pile of bills from the hospital, pharmacy, x-ray tech, surgeon, etc. Even after insurance the amount I owed was unmanageable. Then to top things off, my job laid me off the day after my doctor released me to return to work. Add in pandemic times and it took awhile to find a temp job just to pay basic bills.

I was reminded of BINC and filled out the application. The next day Kate called to get more info. She was incredibly kind and helpful. The day she emailed to say the grant had been approved (which covered nearly half of my medical costs) will forever be one of the best days of my life. She made the calls to get the payments made on my behalf. Having all of the smaller bills out of the way and only having one biller left (though the amount is still hefty) has been a game changer. The amount of stress relieved from this grant is amazing.

Once I'm fully back on my feet and have the means, this will be where I send regular donations. It's my goal to able to help someone else feel as wonderful as I did.
