We Care Tucson provides medical supplies for free for the Tucson community. Medical equipment is basically free with minimal charges.
TUCSON, Ariz. — Today the U.S. Census Bureau released last year’s statistics on poverty. Their findings show nearly 4.7 million people live in poverty due to medical expenses.
Mark David is a retired nurse after 45 years of work and now volunteers for We Care Tucson. He spent his time finding people in need of medical supplies, until last month when his wife faced a terrible tragedy. His wife received the medical care needed to save her life, but David is already receiving calls about medical bills.
David is thankful for the support the nonprofit has offered for himself, and others in need within the community.
