Cargill United Methodist Church Campaign to Forgive Medical Debt
With your help, RIP Medical Debt can acquire and eliminate medical debt in Wisconsin and the Upper Midwest. Every $1 donated will abolish $100 of medical debt in the region and every donation through this page will be spent directly on forgiving medical debt RIP Medical Debt has access to in Wisconsin and the Upper Midwest!
The Problem
In the past forty years, medical costs have doubled, insurance copays and deductibles have spiked, and bankruptcy rates have quadrupled, creating an avalanche of destructive medical debt. More than 60% of bankruptcies in America have medical debt as a root cause.
How it works
- You make a donation. We use data analytics to pinpoint the debt of those most in need: households that earn less than 4x the federal poverty level (varies by state, family size) or whose debts are 5% or more of annual income.
- RIP buys medical debt at a steep discount. We buy debt in bundles, millions of dollars at a time at a fraction of the original cost. This means your donation relieves about 100x its value in medical debt.
- Together we wipe out medical debt. Recipients have no tax consequences or penalties to consider. Just like that, they’re free of medical debt!
This campaign will be most successful if it reaches lots of people. Please share this page on your social networks!
For those who are not on social networks, you can donate by sending a check with Forgive Us Our Debt on the memo line to:
