Gateway Healthcare Special Edition
In this week’s episode of Beyond the Breakwater, Ed and Lyndsay are joined by a special guest, Jim Mier, the Clinic Director of Gateway Healthcare. They discuss a very urgent message and one that requires immediate action. Gateway Healthcare is a nonprofit, medical practice that provides affordable primary and urgent care to all, but specifically exists to care for the uninsured, underinsured, and those with barriers to quality healthcare. As Ed and Lyndsay have discussed in previous episodes, many of the community ministries have been brought to a place that requires radical faith. Gateway Healthcare is at this place now and it needs YOUR help. This is an appeal to all listeners to rally together so that Gateway Healthcare can continue providing the quality, affordable healthcare that every human deserves. Over 1,500 patients have found healing at Gateway yet there are many still without the care they need. This journey to bring healing to our community has just begun, but without an increase in funding Gateway runs the risk of closing its doors. We believe in miracles and today we are praying for one. To keep the doors open through August 2024, Gateway needs $51,000 and a total of $101,319 thru the end of the year. Would you consider becoming a donor of Gateway Healthcare? One-time gifts are welcomed, but recurring donations are what make the clinic sustainable. Gateway would like to raise up 200 recurring donations. Your gift of $35 per month allows one patient to receive the treatment they need. You can be the reason that someone in this community never has to choose between food and healthcare again.
