On November 21-22, Manatee County will be the first location in Florida to be served by Remote Area Medical (RAM), an international charity that organizes physicians and other volunteers to provide free clinics.

This healthcare clinic will provide free medical services – including dental and vision – to thousands of people (adults and children) in need in Manatee and Sarasota counties. The event will be held at Manatee Technical College located at 6305 State Road 70 East in Bradenton.

The Patterson Foundation is funding the Suncoast Campaign for Grade-Level Reading’s participation in this event that touches people in Manatee and Sarasota counties.

Volunteers are still needed for the event. To sign up to volunteer, click here.
