Support Community Health Centers and Make a Lasting Difference
NHC’s mission is clear and urgent: To build healthy communities one neighbor at a time through patient-centered healthcare, regardless of income or current state of wellness. We strive every day to ensure that no one is turned away, but we cannot do this without the generous support of individuals like you. The gap between what NHC is reimbursed by the Oregon Health Plan (e.g., Medicaid) and the actual cost of care continues to grow. Generous donors like you help fill that gap.
If you’re wondering how you can help, we’ve got you. Here are a few ways to support NHC and your neighbors:
Make a One-Time or Monthly Donation
Individual donations help cover the cost of care for patients who can’t afford it. Each year, NHC provides nearly $1 million in charity care for patients unable to afford services. Whether your gift is $5 or $500, every dollar goes toward services like medical visits, dental care, behavioral health, and prescriptions for patients who otherwise couldn’t afford the costs. Monthly donations help us plan and ensure steady support all year long.
