Proceeds from the Gala are critical to the success of the Clinic’s mission as a nonprofit, community-based, volunteer-driven organization committed to providing quality health services to low-income, uninsured county residents.. Today’s economy has made this mission more important than ever, with the number of people seeking care at the Clinic more than doubling over the past year.
