Why the General Fund Matters
The General Fund powers our daily mission. These unrestricted dollars provide critical flexibility to meet patient needs quickly, fill funding gaps and support services that insurance and grants don’t always cover. Your support helps us:
- Keep Care Accessible: Offer sliding fee discounts, medication assistance and wraparound services that remove barriers to health.
- Respond to Community Needs: Quickly address increases in demand, emerging health crises and care for patients who turn to urgent care due to gaps in primary care access.
- Sustain Core Programs: Fund behavioral health, nutrition, early literacy, outreach and other vital services not fully covered by insurance.
- Invest in People: Support staff training and retention so we can provide consistent, quality care from trusted professionals.
Did You Know?
- While 80% of Americans have a primary care provider, urgent care use is rising—nearly 1 in 3 adults visited an urgent care or retail clinic in a single year.
- Many people skip regular primary care due to long waits or access issues.
- HealthLinc helps bridge that gap, ensuring that patients not only have access but also continuity of care and trusted relationships that lead to better long-term outcomes.
Your Impact
James came to HealthLinc for a routine check-up. After a depression screening, he was referred to behavioral health and connected with a community health worker (CHW). Through these visits, James shared he was currently unhoused and experiencing visual hallucinations—something he hadn’t told anyone. Because of the trust built with the CHW and the support of his care team, James left with new medication, vital resources and a team committed to helping him rebuild his life. - “I didn’t know help like this existed.”
After giving birth, Sarah called HealthLinc feeling overwhelmed and disconnected. She was struggling to bond with her baby and recognized signs of postpartum depression. Within hours, our care team consulted with her provider and started her on medication, while also connecting her with a behavioral health consultant. Through weekly counseling, Sarah began to feel supported, seen and understood and soon noticed her mood lifting. She was more engaged with her family, motivated and hopeful. - “I feel like I’m becoming my old, fun self again.”
At just six years old, Lily came to HealthLinc struggling with the loss of her mother and a new ADHD diagnosis. She couldn’t sleep alone, was acting out in school and carried the heavy weight of grief. With support from her behavioral health consultant and psychiatric nurse practitioner, Lily began ADHD treatment and made early progress. But when deeper mood struggles surfaced, her care team adjusted her medications and brought in grief support through Veterans Affairs. Today, Lily is thriving—talkative, playful and full of life again. - “Her mom battled addiction. We’re hopeful we helped Lily choose a different path.”
David, an unhoused patient, came to HealthLinc feeling hopeless. He needed an eye exam but couldn’t afford the visit, let alone a pair of glasses. Using our sliding fee scale and support dollars from donors like you, we covered his optical appointment and glasses. With help from our Uber ride program, he made it to his visit safely and on time. - “He left with new glasses, a restored sense of dignity and deep gratitude for the care he received.”
