A New Day Begins....
Healthcare isn't a luxury. Those of us with health insurance go to sleep each night with security of knowing if we need to go to the doctor, we're covered. Shouldn't everyone have that same comfort?
Would you consider making a gift that will make a real difference in someone's life? It costs BVMI just $1,500 to provide healthcare to a patient for an entire year. That's a modest amount for a heartful of hope!
Our community is battling an extraordinary public health crisis. If you would like to help us continue to care for our BVMI patients, please donate now. Thank you for standing with us!
