Kendall Cares is a grassroots organization that strives to bring healing and peace to the community. We act as a catalyst, mobilizing volunteers to host free clinics that meet the medical, spiritual, and physical needs of the guests - all on a budget of zero dollars and zero cents.
The Kendall Cares Clinic is guided by Touched Twice, a Christian faith-based outreach inspired by Isaiah 58 to reach the poor and needy in the community. We touch lives first by meeting initially expressed needs - sickness, pain, hunger, and others. Then we touch lives a second time by creating a trusting environment that facilitates acceptance and allows people to communicate personally significant needs that may include a spiritual dimension. This is done with integrity, compassion and unconditional respect for personal values.
Kendall Cares relies solely on the generosity of volunteers, local churches and businesses to provide services on clinic day. This generosity allows economically challenged Kendall County residents to obtain vital goods and services ranging from medical care to financial advice and material goods.
Providing free goods and services requires strong volunteer and donor support. Volunteers from several Kendall County churches have already committed to serve. You or your group are invited to join us as a Kendall Cares Clinic volunteer.
