RI Free Clinic is grateful to our supporters.
The Rhode Island Free Clinic depends on the volunteer efforts to create the first ripple, but the Ripple Effect is magnified by our many donors who provide the considerable gifts to sustain the clinic and expand the network.
Our volunteers and donors include private individuals, non-profit organizations, public and private corporations, academic institutions and health care providers who understand that health and wellness are fundamental to a functional society. They provide us with financial and organizational support, alliances extending into the greater Providence healthcare community, and access to professional networks.
They contribute in many ways: some make gifts, large and small, that support operating costs and new and special projects; some offer in-kind donations of prescription and over the counter drugs or collateral goods; others provide laboratory testing and technical services; still others provide the support of their employees and students to assist the clinic. Many support the clinic in multiple ways. All of our donors are appreciated and duly noted in our annual report, and the following are those who have contributed significantly:
