Denver Highlands Medical Outreach at AFC Urgent Care

Each year, we head to Kabwe, Zambia to give under-served communities the care they deserve.

 

AFC Urgent Care Denver donates 5% of all income from our in-house medication sales to provide medical services for underprivileged communities in Kabwe, Zambia. 

Each year, AFC Urgent Care Denver travels to Kabwe, Zambia to provide medical care for under-served villages in the surrounding area. Our mission is to bring medical support, and more importantly hope, to rural communities where healthcare resources are extremely limited. 

Starting in 2019, AFC Urgent Care Denver Highlands, Speer, Denver Park Hill, and Denver Highlands locations will donate 5% of the income from our in-house medicine sales towards our annual cause. It is our way to continue providing medical services to our communities in Denver without asking for extra donations, while being able to give these villages in Kabwe the care they require. 

Clinical leaders at AFC Urgent Care Denver look forward to this trip as a way to promote the values of our organization to parts of the world that desperately need care:

Health Facts and Spending Statistics about Zambia

World Health Organization and the CDC

  • The infant mortality rate in Zambia is 49/1000. In the U.S, that rate is 5/1000. 
  • Per person, Zambia spends roughly $194 on healthcare services. The U.S per capita spending on healthcare is over $10,000.

In the first day alone, our providers treated 160 patients in Kabwe, Zambia.

 

We expect to see even more. Your healthcare dollars at AFC Urgent Care Denver Highlands, Speer, Denver Park Hill, and Denver Highlands go towards friendly, convenient, and high-quality care as well as critical medical services in these villages.

AFC Urgent Care FAQs

  • Why choose AFC for Urgent Care?

    With state-of-the-art centers and a professional medical team, AFC provides on-site X-rays, labs, procedures, and more!

  • What's the difference between AFC Urgent Care and emergency room services?

    Urgent care is for medical conditions that require prompt attention but do not pose an immediate threat to your health or life. Here is a simple rule of thumb: if your medical issues(s) are life threatening, call 911, or go directly to a hospital emergency room. If not, an urgent care center such as AFC is an excellent alternative.
