A LEGACY OF CARINGcelebrating 15 years of providing care to our community

2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T

A LEGACY OF CARINGDecember 2017 marked the end or our fifteenth year of providing free healthcare to our community. After much deliberation and hard work we opened the doors as Community Health Free Clinic in December 2002 and continued the legacy of caring that began ten years earlier with the Cedar Rapids Free Medical Clinic.

Our 15 year Legacy of Caring includes:• Caring for more than 50,000 unique individuals without access to or the ability to pay for

healthcare in our community.• Providing almost 500,000 free medical, dental, vision, and prescription services to uninsured

and underinsured individuals in our community.• Distributing more than $80 million worth of medications to patients who couldn’t afford the

costs associated with the medication they needed.• Volunteers providing more than 367,000 hours of help valued at more than $24 million.

Thanks to the donors, volunteers, partners, and staff on the following pages, Community Health Free Clinic was able to continue its legacy of caring in 2017 by providing free medical, dental, vision, and prescription services to uninsured and underinsured individuals in our community. We provided over 4,500 people more than 14,800 services in our 2017 fiscal year which ended June 30, 2017.

As healthcare costs continue to rise, especially for prescription medications, we have seen an 18% increase in the number of patients we have seen in the first half of our 2018 fiscal year. Many of our patients are unable to afford the medications that their doctors are prescribing them.

Community Health Free Clinic is dedicated to continuing our mission to alleviate human pain and suffering by providing access to and delivery of compassionate healthcare. Thank you for your continued support of our mission. Please consider using the enclosed envelope so that we may continue our legacy of caring for people in our community who are most in need.
