Financial Assistance NDAD can provide financial assistance in two ways

Funds generated by the organization
Funds generated by the organization can be used for:
medication
medical equipment and supplies
accessability
travel expenses
transportation
recreational activities
The use of this type of funding is restricted by NDAD guidelines.

Funds raised by community projects
NDAD may act as custodian of any funds raised through community projects. These funds are raised on behalf of a person by members of his or her community. Because these funds are raised by the community and not NDAD, they can be used to help the person with the disability with any appropriate expense within IRS guidelines.
Money from community fund raising can be used for the same type of expenses as those generated by NDAD as well as things like hospital, clinic or doctor bills or other disability related costs.
Because NDAD is a 501(c3) organization, donations made to NDAD for the community project are tax deductible. NDAD can provide consulting information on fund raising and also pay bills and expenses out of the fund as directed by the fund chairperson.


Information and Referrals One of NDAD's goals is to assist people in receiving help through other agencies whenever possible. Often the person either is not aware of available services or does not know how to gain access to them.

Equipment for Loan NDAD offers a loan program at no charge for individuals to borrow a piece of equipment. Loans can be short or long term depending on the type of equipment and the need of the individual.

NDAD offices in Grand Forks, Bismarck, Minot and Williston have a van with a lift available for loan to individuals in the community who are wheelchair users. The van can be used for out of town medical appointments or for local appointments and/or events. Any out of state trips must be for medical purposes only and be approved by NDAD. The vans are not equipped with hand controls.

Contact your local NDAD office for answers to your questions about our Equipment Loan Program or contact NDAD at 1-800-532-6323 for more information.

Advocacy Protecting the rights of disabled people is a primary concern of NDAD. Every effort is made to ensure that they receive services to which they are entitled from the appropriate agency.
