Our Mission
The Eye on Grace Foundation exists to help alleviate the financial burden of treatment-related travel for those diagnosed with Ocular/Uveal Melanoma. The average travel cost for one treatment is $500-$1500. Multiple trips are usually required, which can be financially devastating.
Eye on Grace also makes an annual research donation to find a cure for this rare cancer. Past recipients include:
Ocular Melanoma Foundation through Thomas Jefferson University Hospital
A Cure in Sight
Melanoma Research Alliance

Keep your eye on grace
II Corinthians 12:9 reminds us that our struggles are met with an abundance of God's grace and strength. This can transform how we navigate difficulties, focusing on the sufficiency of grace rather than the obstacles.
We believe every person is made in the image of God and worthy of care. Our travel grants are available to all individuals affected by Ocular Melanoma—regardless of race, religion, gender, or orientation. We are committed to showing God's love by helping anyone in need, without exception.
