Overview

Mission

US Health Fairs.org is a non-profit organization. The Organization is approved by the State of California under the Articles of Incorporation of a Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation for public purposes, charitable purposes, and preventative health education. The Organization is a registered health care provider with a NPI (National Provider Identifier) issued by the federal government for HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) compliance. The specific purposes of the Organization include providing education, health-screenings, and interventions to advance health equity through improved access to preventative health care in underserved communities.

What it reported doing in 2024

In 2024, US Health Fairs expanded its mission to improve access to care by opening a brick-and-mortar urgent care clinic on the Valley Presbyterian Hospital campus. The clinic integrated urgent and preventive health services, maintaining a strong focus on community outreach, health education, and equitable access for underserved populations. This transition marked US Health Fairs evolution from a mobile health organization to a full-service community health provider.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 91% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
