How you can help…
Deep cuts in insurance coverage and government funding continue to threaten vital health and medical services needed by the most vulnerable members of our coastal communities—the seriously ill, disabled, or dying.
The generosity of families, friends, neighbors, and businesses allows Friends of Health to meet the needs of local agencies who are dedicated to serving our coastal communities.
We routinely donate $10,000 to local agencies to provide supplies and services to their clients. This provided transportation and housing for medical care and respite for families, purchased medication not covered by insurance, supplies for care in the home, and medical equipment for safety and comfort, including hospital beds, shower chairs, and wheelchairs. This year, with cuts to the Food Bank, we are helping with diabetic nutrition supplements.
Please help us help others by making a tax-deductible donation today using PayPal or Stripe, setting up a regular monthly donation, or mailing a check payable to Friends of Health, P.O. Box 754, Fort Bragg, California 95437.
Your contribution will assist coastal residents from Westport to Elk, and inland to Comptche. This area includes over 15,000 people for whom access to health care is limited because of rough roads and distance.
Donating isn't the only way you can help.
Donate gently used medical equipment, such as shower chairs, walkers, and wheelchairs to us. Call or text Carolyn Petersen. OT at 707.489.9985
