Listened to a presentation at 1st Pres. Berkeley on how to make effective community involvement - Dr Dave, the coronary specialist who volunteers for La Clinica shared the approach & commitment to highest quality care... many clinics exist to collect the government fees on the most cost efficient care. This organization reaches to a much higher goal. If you need healthcare on gov't funds or pro bono, start here or Asian Health...?. Contributing here is much more meaningful toward improving lives than most other contribution options. Sensed a little disrespect for pro-life thinking, so if you recognise the sanctity of life, You might have to go strong on that or bring your own support. I hope clients never see that bias, but it may be there. Taking that caveat to heart, this seems to be the real deal on Christian love with footprints!
