The Ricks Brothers Foundation and Medworks came together for a huge collaborative effort at The Old Stone Church for a Pop-Up Medical Clinic on Saturday, April 16th. There were a variety of services offered as the day was geared towards feeding and helping the homeless population in downtown Cleveland.
The Ricks Brothers Foundation offered a helping hand as they supplied additional healthy snacks, and juice to the attendees of the clinic. Pastor Author Ricks acted as the transportation guy, driving around downtown streets and alleyways looking to take the less fortunate to the church and returning them back to their places afterwards.
Meanwhile, the many volunteers from Medworks tended to the varied medical needs of those who came in for assistance. Medworks does medical checks and provide referrals to outside agencies if needed at their very popular clinics. Medworks does 8-10 clinics in and around NEO each year.
The Homeless Hook-up CLE, The Downtown Alliance, Cleveland Clinic and The Old Stone Church came together in one collaborative effort to make this event happen.
Medworks has 6 additional clinics coming up before years end
