Pathway to Health

What Pathway to Health does

Pathway to Health is a humanitarian non-profit organization founded in 2016 and headquartered in Collegedale, Tennessee, that delivers free medical, surgical, dental, vision, and radiology services to uninsured and underserved communities in the United States. The organization operates through mobile multi-specialty clinic events held over 3-4 days in convention centers and church venues across at least eight U.S. cities, including Beckley WV, Fort Worth TX, Indianapolis IN, Los Angeles CA, Phoenix AZ, San Antonio TX, Spokane WA, and St. Louis MO. Service delivery is event-driven and supported by a volunteer workforce of licensed healthcare professionals and general support staff, with individual events mobilizing roughly 100 volunteers, recruited primarily through Seventh-day Adventist Church networks and conference partnerships. The organization does not operate fixed clinical facilities, does not charge patients, and frames its care model around holistic physical, mental, and spiritual health.

The core technology footprint is intentionally thin: there is no proprietary platform, no public API, and no SDK. The website is built on Wix and supports volunteer registration, donation processing, event information, and media galleries, while clinic operations rely on standard patient registration and medical records systems at the point of service. The product portfolio is the multi-specialty clinic event itself, spanning primary care, cardiology, dermatology, gastroenterology, orthopedics, pulmonology, urology, pediatrics, dental cleanings and extractions, vision exams with glasses distribution, surgical procedures (including documented hysterectomies), and radiology/imaging. Supporting products include the volunteer registration system (with seven role categories and online application tracking), the donation platform (one-time gifts, recurring Faith Partners, $100 patient sponsorships, and team-based monthly tiers at $100/$200/$300/custom), and follow-up programs for patients.

The business model is donation-driven and explicitly non-commercial. Revenue streams comprise individual donations through the website portal, recurring monthly giving programs, and patient sponsorship gifts; in-kind contributions from volunteer professional services represent the dominant share of delivered economic value but are not captured as cash revenue. Governance is provided by a Board of Directors that draws representation from the Seventh-day Adventist Church's North American Division, multiple union conferences, Adventist World Radio, Hope Channel International, Adventist HealthCare, 3ABN, Weimar, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, and UCHealth Greeley Hospital. The leadership team comprises President and CEO Ivan Golubic, Board Chair Kathryn Proffitt, CFO and Treasurer W. Benny Moore, VP Spiritual Affairs Don Mackintosh, Executive Director Vinette Dye, and Executive Secretary Kimberly Goodge, supported by a paid staff of 1-10.

Revenue model

1. Individual Donations: Pathway to Health accepts monetary donations from individuals through their website donation portal. Donors can become 'Faith Partners' with monthly giving options, or make one-time donations.
2. Patient Sponsorship: Individual donors can sponsor a patient's care for $100, providing a specific and tangible giving option.
3. Team Monthly Giving: Groups including churches, workplaces, friend circles, and Bible study groups can form teams to donate monthly, with amounts of $100, $200, $300 or custom donation levels.
4. Volunteer Services (In-Kind): Healthcare professionals (medical, dental, vision) and support volunteers donate their time and professional services during clinic events. This represents in-kind contribution rather than direct revenue.

Scale indicators5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Operation Smile: A nonprofit that provides volunteer-led surgical care to underserved communities through medical missions. It overlaps with Pathway to Health's donated surgical services and mobile event model, but focuses on a narrower set of procedures and is primarily international.
• Flying Doctors of America: A nonprofit that recruits healthcare professionals for short-term medical missions in remote and underserved locations. It shares Pathway to Health's volunteer-driven outreach and temporary clinic model, but has a stronger travel and international-mission orientation.

Broad incumbents

• International Medical Corps: A global humanitarian organization that delivers mobile clinics and other health services in emergencies and vulnerable settings. It shares Pathway to Health's donated clinical capacity and access-to-care mission, but operates across a much wider international and emergency-response portfolio.
• Project HOPE: A global health nonprofit that provides mobile clinics, medical outreach, training, and health-system support. It is comparable through humanitarian healthcare delivery and mobile clinical outreach, with a substantially broader international mandate.

Direct peers

• Care Harbor: Care Harbor organizes large-scale free healthcare clinics and community resource events in major U.S. cities. It is comparable through temporary, multi-provider events serving uninsured populations, though it also places greater emphasis on ancillary services and resources.
• Remote Area Medical: A nonprofit that operates free pop-up medical, dental, and vision clinics, often using temporary setups and volunteers. Its event model, uninsured target population, and donated clinical capacity directly overlap with Pathway to Health.
• Mission of Mercy: A nonprofit that uses mobile clinics to provide free medical and dental care, particularly to uninsured and underinsured people. Its mobile care model and patient base closely match Pathway to Health, although its service mix is narrower.
• The Health Wagon: A nonprofit delivering free mobile medical, dental, and vision care to rural and underserved communities. It is comparable through its mobile delivery, free-service model, and reliance on clinical partners and volunteers.
• Volunteers in Medicine: A nonprofit network that provides free primary and specialty care through volunteer clinicians. It is comparable in mission, patient population, and donated clinical capacity, although its clinics are generally fixed community sites rather than mobile events.

Others

• Christian Medical & Dental Associations: A professional association that mobilizes Christian healthcare professionals for domestic and international medical missions, including short-term clinics. It compares through its faith-based volunteer pipeline and service-event model, though it is not primarily a free-clinic operator.
