Calvary Lutheran and Grace Episcopal Campaign
On average, every dollar you donate can abolish nearly $100 in medical debt!
Medical debt is a uniquely American injustice. It prevents millions from achieving financial stability and subjects them to emotional anguish. RIP Medical Debt’s mission is to end medical debt and be:
(1) A source of justice in an unjust healthcare finance system
(2) A unique solution for patient-centered healthcare providers
(3) A moral force for systemic change
Inspired by RIP’s mission, Calvary Lutheran and Grace Episcopal are leading a campaign within our congregations to raise ten thousand dollars and forgive a million dollars in medical debt, if not more!

How RIP Works
Over a hundred million Americans, one in three, struggles with the weight of medical debt.
Here’s how we lift them up.
You make a donation
With every donation, RIP uses its precise data analytics to pinpoint the medical debt of those most in need of relief: households whose incomes are less than four times the federal poverty level guideline or with medical debt representing at least 5% of gross income.
RIP buys medical debt at a steep discount
Your donations allow us to buy debt in bundled portfolios, millions of dollars at a time at a fraction of the original cost. On average, whatever you donate has 100x the impact.
Together we wipe out medical debt
People across the country receive a letter that their debt is gone. No taxes. No penalties. Just like that, they’re free of medical debt.
