Imagine getting a hospital bill you’ll never be able to pay — not because you refused care, but because you needed to survive.
John, that's the reality for millions of people across the country, where our broken healthcare system has made debt a punishment for getting sick. It traps families, deepens inequalities, and disproportionately harms Black, brown, and working-class communities.
Medical debt wrecks credit scores, drains savings, and forces near impossible choices between groceries and life-saving prescriptions.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
With your support, we can help erase this debt.
Undue Medical Debt, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is working to strengthen our communities by erasing burdensome medical debt for millions of Americans. By taking action and donating just $1 — less than the cost of a cup of coffee — on average erases $100 of un-payable medical debt.
Join us today to help erase medical debt by pitching $1 or more.
Medical debt is a uniquely American injustice, John. It prevents millions from achieving financial stability and subjects them to emotional anguish. But we recognize that erasing this burdensome debt is not a solution, but rather an essential intervention.
The long-term solution is implementing a single-payer healthcare system where care, not profits, are centered.
Since 2014, Undue Medical Debt has been freeing everyday people from the heavy burden of medical bills they can’t afford to pay. As of 2023, more than $10 billion in debt has been abolished.
In that time, supporters like you have helped to wipe out billions in debt and lighten the burden for millions of Americans. With your continued support, we can reach even more people and make even more of an impact.
So if you’re able to, pitch in today to help erase medical debt. Whether it's $1, $5, or even $50 — your donation goes further than you think. And to someone facing debt collectors instead of focusing on their recovery, it could mean everything.
In solidarity,
