Matthew 25 Health and Care is a safety-net health provider based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, offering free primary medical care along with dental, vision, and mental health services to uninsured and low-income residents in a broad 15-county region. As the only full-time safety-net clinic in Allen County delivering a comprehensive mix of services at no cost, the organization serves a vulnerable population by addressing multiple health needs through a hybrid model that combines volunteer and staff efforts. The operation relies entirely on charitable gifts and grants from individuals, churches, organizations, and foundations, with volunteers comprising physicians, dentists, nurses, and other helpers who support a staff that totals in the dozens rather than large institutional scale. In addition to its direct care, Matthew 25 fosters community health by coordinating care across a network of partners and emphasizes a mission grounded in its interpretation of charitable service, as reflected in its annual events and ongoing community outreach. A recent development noted is the organization’s continued hosting of its annual benefit golf outing in Fort Wayne, underscoring its fundraising and community engagement activities without changing its core service model.
