Do All The Good You Can!

We have the opportunity to reach out to our neighbors in Western Oklahoma to help abolish medical debt through our “Do All The Good You Can” campaign.  Kingfisher First United Methodist Church is partnering with RIP Medical Debt, a company that is able to purchase debt from the secondary debt market and healthcare providers, to get rid of 4.9 million dollars’ worth of debt for $27,000!

RIP Medical Debt purchases a portfolio of medical debt and then uses the money we raise to abolish the debt for individuals who meet at least one of the following two criteria.  1) Earn at or less than 4x the federal poverty level.  2) Have medical debts that are 5% or more of their annual income.  If you want more information on RIP Medical Debt, feel free to check them out for yourself at https://ripmedicaldebt.org. 

If we are able to tackle this debt, we can even expand our goal to knock out all of the medical debt that RIP has been able to currently purchase for the entire state of Oklahoma.  That would be over 8.4 million dollars’ worth of debt and would cost approximately $50,000 to abolish.  Our goal is to see how much we can raise in 4 months.  Let’s see how much good we can do for others!

In the words of John Wesley:  Do all the good you can.  By all the means you can.  In all the ways you can.  In all the places you can.  At all the times you can.  To all the people you can.  As long as ever you can.
