Rockwall Women's League Children's Medical Fund

The Rockwall Women’s League established the Children’s Medical Fund in 1986 with a check for $1,000.  Helping Hands administers the fund, arranging to pay for medical costs for uninsured children in Rockwall County. In 2004 the Health Center employed its first Family Nurse Practitioner and began seeing children on site.

In 2008 the Women’s League presented Helping Hands with a check for $14,000 in support of the children treated at the Health Center.  Almost 1,500 children received services at or through the Health Center in 2008.
