Spectrum Health Care

Full Spectrum Holiday Giving: Support Inclusive Primary Care

Many of our neighbors still face barriers when trying to access traditional healthcare. People without insurance, LGBTQ+ individuals, those experiencing homelessness, individuals in recovery, and anyone who has felt unseen or unwelcome in a medical clinic deserve a safe, judgment-free space for primary care. Your holiday gift through COMO Gives helps us keep that space open and ensures essential health services reach the people who need us most.

Your donation directly supports our primary care clinic and allows us to remove financial hurdles for uninsured and under-insured patients. It preserves a place where care is trauma-informed, where dignity is honored, and where every person can be met with compassion.

This is more than a seasonal fundraiser; it is a chance to give the gift of health, belonging, and stability to people who depend on us for inclusive, year-round primary care. Each contribution strengthens our ability to provide ongoing, accessible healthcare to the most vulnerable members of our community. This holiday season, your generosity ensures that primary care remains within reach for everyone who walks through our doors.

Thank you for supporting Spectrum Health Care through COMO Gives and for helping us continue to serve Columbia with primary care in full spectrum.
