Help Bella raise money

My fundraising goal is to raise $600 for our student-run free clinic, which is the average cost of lab tests for all patients seen in seven clinic nights. 

The more I learn about the human body, the more I’ve come to appreciate the importance of physical and mental health to one’s lifestyle. Poorly managed medical conditions can constantly distract from daily life and impose strict lifestyle limits that lead to missed school, work, and life events, while good health allows for the freedom to enjoy a lifestyle without constant consideration of how daily choices may affect the body. Health is not a choice and medical care is not optional, but unfortunately it is not accessible for many in need. Our clinic provides free primary and preventive care, health education, patient advocacy, laboratory testing, gynecologic screening, specialty referrals, and health insurance enrollment services for D.C. residnents regardless of insurance status or ability to pay. For many, this is the only way for patients to seek care and manage their chronic conditions. 

If you are able to donate, any amount is greatly appreciated and will go towards making healthcare in the DMV more equitable for all. Thanks for helping me to support our clinic!
