MedStar Health and Monumental Sports & Entertainment (MSE) are continuing their partnership to support vulnerable communities in Washington, D.C., with a $1.1 million donation. This funding will enhance MedStar’s services for birthing mothers, infants, and children, including the Safe Babies Safe Moms program and the Kids Mobile Medical Clinic.
In 2024, MSE committed to a five-year plan to expand access to life-saving healthcare. Key individuals like Kenneth A. Samet from MedStar Health and Ted Leonsis from MSE emphasized the importance of this partnership for improving health outcomes in the community.
The programs supported by this donation include:
-
The Safe Babies Safe Moms program, which provides prenatal care, nutrition support, and mental health resources.
-
The Kids Mobile Medical Clinic, which has been offering affordable primary care to children for over 30 years, visiting neighborhoods and ensuring families are not billed for services.
The initiative aligns with broader efforts to address community health issues like food insecurity and housing challenges, highlighting the role of partnerships in driving meaningful community impact.
