Thank you for your interest in the Support the Emory Farmworker Project. This campaign has ended, but you can still support the Emory Farmworker Project by making a gift here, today!
Chronic Disease Management. Diabetes and Hypertension are common chronic conditions we see at the Emory Farmworker Project. Fifteen dollars can pay for 3 months of blood pressure or diabetes medication for a farmworker.
Farmworker Care Package. In addition to healthcare and medications, there is a need for clothing to help with comfort and safety while they work. A gift of $25 can buy a sun hat, 2 pairs of socks, and 2 pairs of underwear.
Pain Management. Due to the physically demanding and repetitive nature of their work, musculoskeletal injuries are common for farmworkers. They are by far the most common diagnosis at the project. $50 help cover the cost of a brace, reusable hot/cold pack, and 2-3 months of pain medication.
Shade. $100 can help buy two tents, which are essential for outdoor clinics that take place in the middle of June. Tents provide protection from the sun for the patients and volunteers during clinic. This also helps offset costs for students from having to provide their own tents.
28 Years of Service. This June will mark the 28th year of our project! Celebrate with a gift of $280 to help keep the project going for many years to come.
