Kind Partners is a new way to give to ensure LGBTQIA+ communities and people impacted by HIV receive the high-quality healthcare they deserve.
Kind Business Partners “Give Kindness” so you can “Get Kind,” whether it’s for PrEP, Gender-Affirming Care, HIV Care, or any other service at Kind Clinic.
Starting at just $5 a month or a donation of $50 annually, you can be a Kind Partner and help in the pursuit of health justice.
