About SENSE OF SECURITY

Sense of Security is a Colorado-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit (tax-exempt since 2000) that provides direct, non-medical financial assistance to people undergoing breast cancer treatment so they can maintain housing, utilities, transportation and basic needs while focusing on recovery.

The organization operates statewide in Colorado and centers its work on sustained monthly support and one-time emergency grants; since founding it has delivered multi-year grant programs and partners with local recovery-support projects to improve post-surgical recovery and quality of life.

Recent activity (2022–2024) includes continued grant-making to Coloradans in treatment, a programmatic partnership to supply mastectomy recovery boxes, regular grantee spotlights and annual fundraising events that underwrite the grant programs.

Notable achievements

Longstanding grantmaking impact

Since its founding in 2000 the organization has distributed multiple millions in direct financial assistance to thousands of Colorado families to help cover basic living expenses during breast cancer treatment.

Sustained statewide reach

Has built a program model that serves Coloradans across multiple counties with repeatable grant offerings and emergency support, maintaining operations and grant cycles over two decades.

Programmatic partnership expansion

In recent years the nonprofit expanded services through partnerships (for example, a mastectomy recovery box program) to add non-financial recovery supports alongside monetary grants.
