VOLUME 10 - Oct 2020
Generosity is Contagious:
Highlighting our awesome supporters!
Thank you to those who helped us "Shine the Light" at our largest annual fundraiser, the "Hope For Community Health Luncheon" last week.

Our generous donors gave $28,120 towards our $75,000 goal.

Thank you to our friends at LaCa Projects (Latin American Contemporary Art), who kindly donated 10% of all art sale proceeds during July and August to us, totaling $765.
YOUR IMPACT ON OUR 3 PROGRAMS:
Sharing our fiscal year outcomes (July 2019 - June 2020)
Primary care for people with modest resources

Your generosity allowed us to not only serve more people than ever before this past year, but to waive service fees during the COVID-19 crisis to remove any barriers to care.

> 4,600 patient encounters
> 10% increase this past year in services provided

Pictured: this patient had just started a new job but didn't have health insurance yet due to a 30-day waiting period. Our Clinic helped her continue care for a chronic condition during this time.

Comprehensive healthcare for those most in need

You enabled us to connect a record-breaking number of people to medical care this past year, and our amazing PRO network continued to donate an astounding amount of free care.

> over 6,000 people served
> a 20% increase in patients
> $51,000,000 in donated care
Helping first-time parents succeed

We are happy to report that thanks to your gifts, NFP had another great year of helping first-time parents succeed!

> 367 families served
> 70 families graduated from the program
> a 12th nurse was added to our team

Your support makes it possible for struggling new families to find relief during this very challenging time. Nurses are delivering not only their services, but also diapers, food, and other essential items to new mothers and their babies.

THE FIGHT IS FAR FROM OVER
NEW VIDEO: Check out how Care Ring has been responding to the COVID-19 crisis to support our most vulnerable neighbors. Thank you to Silent Images for producing the video.
With COVID-19 cases again on the rise, our patients, who were already living on the margins, continue to be severely impacted.

We are serving more patients than ever, while still maintaining great outcomes such as controlled diabetes and lower blood pressure.

Your support will ensure we can serve everyone in need so they can get healthy and back to work, and provide important preventive care to keep people out of the ER and vital bed space open at hospitals.
