“Hope is the word which God
has written on the brow of every man.”
~ Victor Hugo
SERIOUS ILLNESS
A serious medical condition is life-changing. Beyond
the anxiety over the life of a loved one, the burden of the cost
can be difficult to bear. Even with health insurance, most
Americans face staggering deductibles and out of pocket
expenses. The average cost of a single hospitalization is over
$22,000 and this doesn’t include lost wages and follow-up
care. Additionally, according to the U.S. Census Bureau,
there were almost 50 million uninsured individuals in 2010.
These people bear the entire burden of cost of their
treatment. 1213 provides financial support for Christian
families facing overwhelming medical expenses and our
volunteers help them focus on their spiritual health.
