Project K.I.N.D. relies heavily on sponsorship
to assist in facilitating events like these, where many children will be served.
Project K.I.N.D. was created by the Riverside County Medical Association (RCMA), in April of 1994, to provide free health care to children, ages 5-17, with acute illnesses who do not qualify for Medi-Cal and who have no health insurance.
Project K.I.N.D. collaborates with local school districts and over 120 health care providers who donate their services to provide free health care services to low-income children attending Riverside County public schools.
The focus of the medical care is to address specific illnesses, reduce public health risks, manage pain, and assist in returning the child to school as soon as possible.

hopes to serve 250 children or more this Fall by holding vision clinics where
children will be provided with eye exams and glasses. This is a collaboration between Project K.I.N.D.,
volunteer providers, and sponsors. For every child that is served there is a
$30 fee that will cover all services and glasses if necessary. Click
