IRS990/Desc0LYMELIGHT FOUNDATION PROVIDES MEDICAL GRANTS UP TO $10,000 TO LYME-INFECTED CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS WHO CANNOT PAY FOR NECESSARY MEDICATIONS AND THERAPIES. GRANT FUNDS COVER DOCTOR VISITS, MEDICATIONS, SUPPLEMENTS, LAB TESTING, ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES AND TRANSPORTATION TO OUT OF AREA PHYSICIANS. IN 2014, GRANTS WERE MADE TO 154 RECIPIENTS. AS MOST INSURANCE COMPANIES DO NOT COVER THE TREATMENT OF CHRONIC LYME DISEASE, FAMILIES ARE TYPICALLY LEFT ON THEIR OWN TO BATTLE THE DISEASE, OFTEN INCURRING ENORMOUS MEDICAL DEBT. LYMELIGHT FOUNDATION BRIDGES THIS GAP,GIVING RECIPIENTS A FIGHTING CHANCE FOR A HEALTHY FUTURE. LYMELIGHT FOUNDATION HELPS YOUTH WHO MAY OTHERWISE LEAD LIVES OF UNFULFILLED POTENTIAL AND DEPENDENCY TO FORGE A PATH TOWARDS HEALTH AND SELF-RELIANCE.
