Rotary Club Of Livermore Valley Donates Over $26K To Axis Health

LIVERMORE, CA - The Livermore Valley Rotary Club donated $26,300 to Axis Community Health’s new Livermore clinic. The new clinic will provide free or low-cost medical care, depending on individual circumstances.

The funds were provided in addition to a grant from the American Rescue Plan Act to help communities most impacted by the pandemic. Alameda County Supervisor Daid Hubert directed 10 Bay Area Rotary clubs, including Livermore Valley, to use the funds to support people who are unhoused, young, or part of an underserved community.

The donation will fund the start-up supplies of three dental offices planned for the new clinic.

“The Livermore Valley Rotary Club determined that Axis Community Health serves those most in need in our community and truly fulfills the intent of ARPA,” President Kevin McCallum said in a statement. “We are grateful to Supervisor Haubert for giving us this opportunity to support this long term investment in our community’s health that will provide needed dental services to underserved children and adults.”

“Axis is honored to receive this generous donation from the Rotary Club of Livermore Valley,” Axis CEO Liz Perez-Howe said in a statement. “This contribution will play a pivotal role in propelling Axis's expansion of our comprehensive dental, medical, and behavioral health services, leading to a healthier and more resilient Tri-Valley. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Rotary Club for their unwavering dedication and commitment to effecting positive change within our community.”
