Named Loudoun Co. Non-Profit of the Year 2019!
Volunteer
The Loudoun Free Clinic is honored by the many people who believe in our mission and work day in and day out to care for hundreds of patients.
From doctors, nurses, and pharmacists to interpreters, administrative professionals, and IT experts, the Free Clinic volunteers are vast and varied in skill, but united in their mission to care for those who need it most.
We are humbled by their service and thankful that they are a part of our family. To all of our volunteers, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Still curious?
We will conduct a background check. Furthermore, we retain the right to turn down any prospective volunteers who do not appear a good fit with our philosophies.
You cannot become a volunteer if you or a loved one is or has been a patient of the Free Clinic.
Feed our Crew of Volunteers
Most volunteers come straight from work, or go straight to work right after tending to our patients. If you'd be willing to provide food for the crew, please contact our volunteer coordinator.
We can also always use snacks and drinks for our volunteers, many whom spend several hours each day at the clinic and need to keep their energy high!
To make a dinner donation, please

WHO ARE THE PATIENTS OF THE LFC?
They're our neighbors, our colleagues, our friends, our community's most fragile and underserved
Our patients are hard-working, tax-paying Loudoun County residents
95% of LFC patients are actively employed but get paid minimum wage (or less)
Many hold several jobs so they can pay for basic necessities
Most suffer from at several chronic illnesses and are on multiple medications
Our patients are not offered insurance, do not qualify for Medicaid, and cannot afford an Affordable Care Plan (Obamacare).
They are in that bracket of the population that make too much to qualify for Medicaid, but so little they are struggling to put food on the table.
They are adults who are choosing to put their family first and their health second, so often they end up in the Emergency Room as they've waited until the last possible moment to seek treatment.
THE LFC IS A PREVENTATIVE HEALTHCARE HOME WHERE WE EMPOWER AT-RISK INDIVIDUALS TO TAKE CHARGE OF THEIR HEALTH.
But we can't do this alone.
YOU CAN BE A PART OF OUR MISSION.
