Health for a better world
A community includes many unique individuals and different groups. Some community members have the resources to afford basic needs, while other members may struggle to put food on the table. In keeping with our Mission to care for those who are most vulnerable, we are working to improve the health of everyone in our community.
Differences in community conditions and experiences among groups within the community have been shown to drive health outcomes. Some populations may experience better, or worse, health based on where they live or the color of their skin. And if a patient doesn’t have access to healthy food or a stable place to live, it is harder to stay well or recover from an illness.
With the help of donations, we work with community partners to help patients in need access social support systems, provide additional support when resources are unavailable, and at times provide one-time support to help them get back on their feet. Your gift can help break down barriers to care that many of our vulnerable patients face.
