MAKING A DIRECT IMPACT ON COMMUNITIES
A solid investment of resources for greater healthcare impact, our member clinics leveraged a collective operating budget of $49 million in the past year into $114 million worth of care – made possible through collaborative partnerships, in-kind support and the generosity of volunteers as well as a generous state appropriation which the VAFCC administers and disperses directly to member clinics for care provided to uninsured adult patients.
