The Tournament
Our annual golf tournament, dedicated to Dr. Tom McInerney, is held in October, to raise funds for the Clinic. A scramble/best ball format is used for this event, with teams assigned to one of the 18 holes.
2026 Annual Appeal Begins
The 2026 Annual Appeal has begun. The Friends are requesting a donation from you. With your support we can sustain our mission of providing funds to support access to free health care for uninsured adult Mainers. With your generous help, the clinic can maintain a trusted and reliable safety net for hundreds of people a year who have few, if any, other options.
This year our fund-raising goal is $70,000. Donations support salaries for the paid clinic staff, as well as purchasing medical supplies, and paying for diagnostic services, medications, and immunizations. Thanks to donor support, staff and volunteers can distribute free home blood pressure machines and blood glucose meters to patients who need close monitoring. This year patients will be offered nutrition, eye and dental care, in addition to medical and mental health care.
We appreciate your consideration for a donation. Please use the DONATE button to make your donation. Your name, address, and other information will not be shared.
We are very grateful for your generosity. Thank you.
From our patients
“I just wanted to extend my gratitude to you and everyone else at the clinic for the work you do; not only for the people of Portland, but for people all over Maine who have limited, or no access to health-care in this day and age. You were kind, funny, and adamant about making sure that I was keeping up with my health at a time in my life that I was really struggling. Because of you and the services provided at the clinic, I was able to get immunizations, prescriptions, and other various health check ups that I otherwise wouldn’t have access to..”
