In much of rural Arkansas, the nearest lab or clinic can be an hour's drive away. The result is costly in health: diabetes, heart disease, and more that go undetected until they become emergencies. Arkansas consistently ranks among the highest states in the nation for diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and the people most at risk are often the ones with the least access to a simple blood test.

MW Community Health & Transportation exists to close that gap. We bring the testing to the community, then provide reliable transportation to appointments. Using portable, FDA-cleared, CLIA-waived testing devices, our team sets up free screening events in the towns that need them most - a church fellowship hall, a community center, a parking lot under a pop-up tent - and gives neighbors their results on the spot, along with an on-site medical doctor's guidance on next steps.

A single visit can screen for cholesterol, blood sugar, diabetes (A1c), and hypertension. HIV, Hepatitis C, pregnancy, and colorectal cancer at-home screening kits will be provided. For some participants, it's the first health check they've had in years, and for others they may have already received a diagnoses, but have no reliable or affordable transportation to medical visits.

This campaign funds the two things that make those events possible: the testing machines and reliable transportation for patients. Every dollar goes toward equipment and supplies that screen real people in real towns. Whether you give $30 or $6,000, you are directly putting a test in someone's hands, and helping Arkansas become healthy again.
