Disparities have plagued societies from around the world throughout our existence. Disparity is defined as lack of similarity or equality; inequality; and difference. Unfortunately, disparities exist within the education system, among the various socioeconomic groups, between racial and ethnic group, and within the health care system. Vital Outreach Foundation's mission is to provide effective, quality health care to people who are financially challenged regardless of age, gender, race, ethnicity, and location. By pursuing our mission, we aim to achieve our goal of eliminating needless health care disparities!
We can no longer accept these disparities and allow for them to destroy our health, our families, our communities, our health care system, and our economies across the world. For those who are suffering at the short end of the disparity stick, the cost of insufficient, inadequate, or ineffective care is enormous and unacceptable. As a result, we all have to bear the burden. We just can't keep doing this.
The Vital Outreach Foundation was founded by Dr. Kelvin Brown who began fighting disparities while only a teenager in Memphis, Tennessee. Dr. Brown later attained a Masters Degree in Public Health from Emory University, completing a Thesis based solely on socioeconomic determinants of health care disparities. Dr. Brown also got a medical degree, and he was then able to witness and fight health care disparities directly on the firing lines at hospitals such as Grady Health System, Emory University Hospital, Crawford Long Hospital, Piedmont Hospital, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, Redmond Regional Hospital, Floyd Medical Center, Wellstar Health System, and Precision Weight Loss Center. As a result, Vital Outreach Foundation has been built on a solid foundation, has the proper mission for the issues we face today, knows how to get results, and uniquely sets out to collaborate with health care providers, organizations, corporations, celebrities, athletes, and community stakeholders.
Well, it starts with you! No matter how good we are, how prepared we are, or how good our intentions are, we cannot begin to a make a dent in the monstrous impact felt from these disparities without far-reaching and collaborative efforts that involve every industry and people from every walk of life! With that said, we plan to successfully campaign for the people by the people. At the root of the movement will be a powerfully positive song that literally aims at the heart of the matter which is the fact that people must feel and care about changing the status quo. By using Education Entertainment with the involvement of some of the biggest music artists, celebrities, athletes, organizations, and corporations, Vital Outreach Foundation will Engage, Educate, and Empower both health care providers and the people!
