Background Statement
OC Health Peers (OCHP) is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization that is dedicated to providing our local community with assistance in most aspects of health and well-being. There are some institutions that provide resources, but not enough customer support to help all inquiries in a timely manner. OCHP will be here to help the general public in utilizing these resources by external assistance, research, and more.
Impact Statement
Unlike some alternative nonprofits that may exist, OCHP has a foundation built on anthropological approaches and similarly related academic fields. Our current team consists of several women of color with higher educational degrees and various life experiences to uptake OCHP's mission and current/prospective research projects.
Needs Statement
We need support to acquire vital equipment, such as tablets for conducting surveys and gathering related information, which can enhance patient engagement and education. Additionally, the printing of educational literature is crucial for spreading awareness about preventive health measures and available resources in underserved communities. Moreover, adequate funding is essential for hiring dedicated personnel who can manage administrative tasks and conduct fieldwork, ensuring that the organization runs smoothly and reaches those in need. With your financial support, we can be empowered to provide critical services and improve community health outcomes. Your generosity can make a profound difference. Please donate today and help us bridge the gap in health access, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to lead a healthier life.

Statement from the CEO/Executive Director
Since most of our completed work and projects have been solely on a volunteer basis, we have not performed as efficiently as we would like. Although, we will not stop dedicating our extra time for our cause, we still aim to be able to work on a full time basis. Our passion fuels us, we would like other passionate individuals to assist via volunteering and/or donating funds to us.
