   There is a huge gap in healthcare and if you do not have insurance, it’s a terrible risk to visit the doctor. Any free or reduced cost services are huge for patients, especially in a town like Holland. Those who are under and uninsured can become “crippled by healthcare costs”. Dr. Arendshorst, Volunteer Provider

     My favorite part about volunteering at HFHC is the clientele. I cherish the strong connections I have with them. Our community is full of many people in need of guidance, and I’m so grateful to be able to support them." Amberly Keyes, Student Volunteer
