programs & services impact
Your support ensures we continue to provide essential programs and services that are otherwise not traditionally covered under state or federal funding. This includes services such as:
- Free HIV home-testing kits for patients
- Food pantry access for individuals and families with food insecurity
- Harm Reduction programs offered in the heart of our city to address the opioid epidemic, including overdose prevention and linkage to medically assisted treatment
- Support groups for our LGBTQ+ communities
- Emergency housing, rent, and utility assistance and transportation to much needed healthcare services
- HIV testing at community outreach events
- “Reach out & Read” – an early childhood literacy program provided by our Pediatrics division
This reflects but a few of the services your support provides. With over 100 patients on average referred through testing each month to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP—the once-a-day pill to prevent HIV infection) helping to end the HIV epidemic; 52,000+ individuals engaged via physical and digital outreach on a yearly basis; and continued patient growth across all areas of the organization, it is essential that we have your support to continue to provide stigma-free and barrier-free care to all who walk through our doors regardless of their ability to pay.
Join with other generous donors who are dedicated to supporting our mission and our community who we are so proud to serve.
Contact a member of our Foundation Team at [email protected] for more information about joining.
