The Orange County Free Clinic is dedicated to the belief that everyone should have access to healthcare services. Our mission is to provide primary medical care to residents of Orange County who do not have the resources to obtain basic health care needs. 

The Orange County Free Clinic was established in  2006 as 501 C 3 Non-Profit organization to provide basic health care to qualifying adult individuals, those who are uninsured, underinsured and have incomes at or below 300% of the federal poverty level. 

The idea for starting a free clinic in Orange County was inspired by a group of committed physicians and community leaders sensitive to the lack of accessible health care for uninsured low income residents in Orange County. In 2007, doors opened to 86 enrolled patients. Today, the Clinic has over 5,000 enrolled patients who have access to free primary healthcare when they need it most!  

The Clinic is supported by In-kind donations from Laboratory Corporation of America (LabCorp) and UVA Health Culpeper Medical Center and partnership between Orange Pharmacy, Your Gordonsville Pharmacy and many other partners who support services at the Clinic . In 2009, the OCFC became a member of the Virginia Association of Free and Charitable Clinics. In 2011 the clinic became a member of the Orange County Chamber of Commerce and is supported by businesses and organization throughout the community.

Further, as a community based healthcare provider, the OCFC is supported by its community-Town of Orange, Orange County, Gordonsville Town and numerous community organizations,  individuals, private foundations and grants and does not receive direct federal funding for operations. OCFC asks for support with one signature fundraiser- Hope Blooms Gala in the Spring and a Golf Tournament in the Fall. Another fundraiser is its newsletter going out twice annually (Spring and Fall).  OCFC offers consistent, nurturing care to residents of Orange County.
