Some healthcare clinics are run by nonprofits in communities where people who lack health insurance can get help. Nonprofit healthcare clinics often receive grants from large organizations that act as donors. Some healthcare providers who work in clinics do so as part-time volunteers. Clinics that operate at low or no-cost to locals often are an important source of healthcare education in the communities in which they serve. Health care clinics often disseminate information to low income patients on how to stay healthy and avoid ravaging diseases such as HIV/AIDs. Some clinics also have mental health care providers on site to help people cope with the challenges that certain illnesses can cause.
