Agape free clinic sets 3rd annual fundraiser

Agape’s Annual Fund Raiser is held in order to provide free healthcare for uninsured people who otherwise cannot afford basic medical care. The Agape Clinic is a non-denominational faith-based clinic.

Dr. Eric Harding said at the clinic’s opening:  “We are trying to meet the spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of the customers.”  Agape Clinic is staffed by volunteers from the community.

A large portion of Agape’s patients are people with diabetes, high blood pressure and other illnesses that require patients to be seen regularly. The medical services are wide-ranging and will include general health screenings, managing chronic illness, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and more.

Agape’s mission is: “To share the love of Christ by providing free health care to those without medical insurance.” The clinic serves those who live in Benton, Lafayette, Lee, Marshall, Pontotoc, Tippah, and Union counties.

This is a 501 c 3 non-profit organization. Any gift will be tax-deductible. Anyone can donate online or can call 662-534-0898. Agape Clinic is located at 505 North Street in the Historic Northside Neighborhood.
