Continued Service & Growth

The June 2019 mission served more than 240 patients and included school outreach. A further medical mission took place June 10–18, 2023.

The Clinic Opens Its Doors

Bunkers Hill Health Center opened in June 2018 and served 257 patients in its first month.

Preparing for Opening

The shared effort continued toward the goal of a permanent place of healthcare and community support.

Building Momentum

Over the twelve-year construction journey, doctors, nurses, builders and supporters shared their time and talents.

Laying the Foundation

Family, friends and volunteers continued the work, building the community health center brick by brick.

The Vision Takes Root

With an acre of donated land and government clearance to break ground, a vision for accessible care in Bunkers Hill began taking shape.
