remote area medical.

learning about this organization has assured me that there are non-profits whose focus is truly on the needy and providing for them, free of cost.

the man in charge, Teddy Brock, has no salary, no family, and no home. he lives in an abandoned school that is leased out for use by RAM for $1 a year. he used to take showers in the courtyard with a hose.  this is a man wholly devoted to helping those in need.

RAM operates on a $250,000 budget yet last year treated 17,000 patients!! the people profiled in this 60 Minutes clip truly broke my heart to see that there are millions like them who suffer from health issues with no opportunity to afford treatment. this is an organization that i plan on giving my support to.
