Centre Volunteers in Medicine (CVIM) is excited to announce that once again Centre region marathoners are running in Boston - April 18th, Pittsburgh – May 1st, the Poconos – May 15th, and other marathons across the USA to support CVIM’s mission. This event, sponsored by Mount Nittany Health, is in its 14th year and has raised over $550,000 for CVIM patients.
CVIM is a free clinic providing medical and dental care to Centre County residents who lack insurance coverage. Many patients earn too much to qualify for Medicaid yet earn too little for the Affordable Care Act mandates to apply. CVIM offers additional services that include Medication Assistance and Case Management Service to aid our patients finding other forms of assistance to ease their burdens.
The funds raised through the Marathoners for Medicine event are critical to the existence of CVIM, as CVIM is not government funded and must raise 100% of operational expenses through donations, grants and events.
