Sedera Volunteers at the Hope Medical Clinic

Sedera supports our local community

Each year Sedera actively seeks opportunities to support our local community, especially organizations that share our faith in the strength of community, the importance of charity and benevolence, and a commitment to improving the lot of humankind, present and future.

Recently, members of the Sedera team showed up with open hearts and big smiles and volunteered their painting talents to freshen up the interior of the nonprofit Hope Medical Clinic in Austin, TX. Those who could not attend the volunteer day purchased or provided painting supplies for the beautification project and the team worked together to get everything organized onsite.

Hope Medical Clinic: Exemplify. Empower. Encourage.

Hope Medical Clinic is a non-profit organization based in Austin, Texas, dedicated to providing accessible and high-quality healthcare to underserved communities in the area. The clinic, “had humble beginnings in 2010 when a group of providers saw a need for compassionate healthcare access in underserved communities. This small group began seeing patients one by one, often making old-fashioned house calls. As the need continued to grow, the vision and passion grew as well and in 2012, the Get Up Project was created, becoming the organizational structure for what is now known as Hope Medical Clinic.”

The mission of Hope Clinic is to provide compassionate healthcare to everyone, regardless of their ability to pay, and the clinic is “100% supported by donations and grants.” The clinic serves patients who are uninsured, underinsured, or simply unable to access healthcare due to financial or other barriers.  

The experienced and dedicated healthcare professionals, the administrative staff, and the compassionate volunteers at the Hope Medical Clinic are the “heart and soul” of the facility. They are “dedicated to serving those in transitional life situations, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender or religious affiliation.”

“I want to thank Sedera … and the people that showed up to help this place sparkle! We are so grateful and thankful to Sedera for making our place feel new again.” ~ Amy Herring, Hope Clinic Staff Member.

“Thanks so much to you and your team for coming to paint yesterday. A lot got done in just a few hours! We appreciate your help so much!” ~  Brandi Gruis, Hope Clinic Volunteer
