FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
RCF — Renaissance Cares Foundation — is a nonprofit organization that aims to support individuals in need with funding, resources, connections, and more.
Anyone — veterans, low-income students, the elderly, disabled individuals, single parents, unemployed adults, teenagers, and additional underserved populations — who requires funding or aid in accessing continued care, prescription medication, medical specialists, educational resources, or other types of support.
RCF raises money to help individuals in need or undergoing hardships to obtain the resources they need. This could come in the form of funds to obtain expensive prescription medication required for ongoing care; connecting patients with specialists or counselors; providing educational materials and events for health management and prevention; and other outreach efforts.
Whatever the need may be, you can submit a Request Assistance form on the website. Each request will be evaluated by the RCF board, and assistance will be approved within RCF’s budgetary limits.
Monetary donations are critical to RCF so it can provide necessary assistance to the community it serves. All donations are tax deductible, and are tailored to meeting individual needs and hardships that are reviewed and approved by a majority vote of the RCF board.

Our vision is to recognize a need in the community and fulfill it. When we understood that Doctors Hospital at Renaissance had areas of the facility that lacked dedicated play spaces for children, we applied for a grant.
That grant has enabled us to purchase three PLAY touch tables and 12 mobile tablet carts. Promoting individual and collaborative play helps children cope with the emotional stress and trauma that might be present in a hospital setting.
