What is The Spark Grant?

The Spark Grant is Fire Pickleball’s commitment to supporting families fighting cancer. Just as a spark can ignite a fire, these grants are designed to spark hope by easing the burden of overwhelming medical bills. Our goal is to award multiple Spark Grants throughout the year to extend our reach and impact.

Apply – Families submit applications. 

Review – Our board carefully reviews each application.

Award – Grants of up to $15,000 are awarded throughout the year.

The Spark Grant is open to families with a loved one currently undergoing cancer treatment. Applicants must provide:

• Proof of diagnosis or treatment
• Copies of hospital/medical bills
• Basic household information

A cancer diagnosis is overwhelming enough without the weight of financial strain. The Spark Grant helps families focus on what matters most — healing and time together — instead of worrying about how to pay the bills.

Applications for the 2026 Spark Grant are now open! Submit your information through our secure form to be considered.

Your donations and sponsorships make this grant possible. Together, the pickleball community can rally to provide hope and relief for families when they need it most.
