In response to COVID-19, the Free Clinic of Southwest Washington will transition its annual in-person Sam Beall breakfast fundraiser to a one-day virtual event. This annual event, named after one of the Free Clinic’s founders, Dr. Sam Beall, will raise money to help the uninsured in Southwest Washington receive free, compassionate, quality health care.
On Thursday, May 13, tune in at https://freeclinics.org as you are taken through a heartfelt, video journey of the important work the Free Clinic is doing amid a world-wide pandemic. The Sam Beall virtual event will also include the chance to win great prizes when you sign up to support the Free Clinic. To register (its FREE!) visit https://freeclinics.org. The goal is to raise $25,000.
“During these times of uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, we need to counter this with warmth and love. This perspective is guiding our efforts as we prepare to host our Sam Beall virtual event,” explained Pam Knepper, Free Clinic Communications, Development and Outreach Manager. “We want to foster inclusion, camaraderie, and kinship amidst widespread social distancing. There is no better way to honor the community-building spirit on which the Free Clinic was founded more than 30 years ago. Please plan to join our special online event, so we can continue to offer compassionate care-always.”
