What We Support
Safety Net Clinics in the Greater Sacramento Region. Benevolence has been defined as wanting for others and their families the same things that you want for yourself and those you love. To that end, we support clinics that provide high quality health care to people who are underinsured or uninsured. These clinics include the nationally acclaimed UC Davis School of Medicine's network of student run community clinics (the Paul Hom Asian Clinic, Clinica Tepati, the Imani Clinic, the Joan Viteri Memorial Clinic, and the Bayanihan Clinic). Eighty-five percent of UCD medical students volunteer at the clinics during their years at the medical school. Undergraduate students act as interpreters, patient advocates, receptionists, and lab workers. Doctors from numerous medical groups in the area volunteer at many of these clinics as attending physicians. Other safety net clinics and programs supported by our organization include CommuniCare Health Centers; CSFRF's SPIRIT Project; The Effort; HALO Community Clinics; MercyClinic Loaves & Fishes; MercyClinic North Highlands; MercyClinic Norwood; and White Rock Family Clinic.
Cure Breast Cancer is a non-profit organization started by TPMG surgeon, Dr. Ernie Bodai. Motivated by treating over 2000 women for breast cancer, Dr. Bodai was the driving force behind the breast cancer awareness stamp that went on sale in 1998 and the breast cancer awareness license plate that debuted in 2001. Cure Breast Cancer is dedicated to bringing national attention to these projects that together raise millions of dollars per year for breast cancer research.
The Maggi Carlile Memorial Scholarship Fund recognizes high school seniors who have distinguished themselves through outstanding academic achievement, extracurricular activities, and community service. The scholarships are given out in remembrance of Dr. Tony & Mrs. Juli Carlile’s daughter who died unexpectedly at the age of 13 in May of 1997. Maggi Carlile was known for her passion for nature, sports, music, family, and faith. The courage which she demonstrated while fighting for her life left an impression on many members of the Kaiser family who cared for her and loved her. It is the hope of the scholarship committee members that winners of the Carlile Scholarship will follow Maggi’s example and use their talents and energy to actively make this world a better place to live. High school seniors who have a parent employed by The Permanente Medical Group or Kaiser Permanente in the Capital Service Area are eligible to apply. To date, we have had the honor of selecting 141 young men and women to be Maggi Carlile Scholars.
