Mission

OPERATION OF A FREE HEALTH CLINIC.

  • COMPASSIONATE CARE OF SHELBY COUNTY (CCSC) IS A FAITH-BASED HEALTHCARE CENTER DEDICATED TO PROVIDING QUALITY CARE AND HOPE TO SHELBY COUNTY'S UNDERSERVED POPULATION. SINCE OPENING ITS DOORS TO PATIENTS IN AUGUST 2007, CCSC HAS EXPERIENCED RAPID GROWTH; WITHIN JUST SIX WEEKS, VOLUNTEER PROVIDERS WERE SEEING MORE THAN 100 PATIENTS EACH WEEK. TODAY, THE CENTER SERVES OVER 2,000 ACTIVE PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY HEALTHCARE, MENTAL HEALTH THERAPY, MEDICATION ASSISTANCE, AND GENERAL DENTAL CARE. THE DEMAND FOR OUR SERVICES CONTINUES TO GROW. MANY INDIVIDUALS WITHOUT INSURANCE FACE SIGNIFICANT BARRIERS TO ACCESSING HEALTHCARE, WHICH CAN LEAD TO SEVERE MEDICAL CONDITIONS BEING IGNORED, PREVENTIVE MEASURES NOT BEING TAKEN, AND NECESSARY MEDICATIONS GOING UNPRESCRIBED. IN RESPONSE, CCSC IS COMMITTED TO BRIDGING THIS GAP BY OFFERING MEDICAL, DENTAL, AND PRESCRIPTION ASSISTANCE TO THOSE LACKING VIABLE HEALTHCARE OPTIONS. WHEN PATIENTS ARE DIAGNOSED WITH CHRONIC OR SEVERE HEALTH ISSUES, THEY OFTEN NEED SUPPORT TO ADJUST TO THEIR NEW LIFESTYLES AND BECOME THE BEST VERSIONS OF THEMSELVES. MANY LACK KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE CAUSES AND RISK FACTORS OF SIGNIFICANT HEALTH ISSUES, WHICH CAN LEAD TO POOR HEALTH CHOICES. THIS SITUATION CONTRIBUTES TO HIGHER INCIDENCES OF OBESITY, MALNUTRITION, DIABETES, HEART DISEASE, SUBSTANCE ADDICTION, AND EVEN CANCER. MANY OF OUR PATIENTS REQUIRE MORE TIME DURING THEIR VISITS BECAUSE THEY MAY NOT HAVE SEEN A HEALTHCARE PROVIDER IN YEARS DUE TO A LACK OF INSURANCE, MISUNDERSTANDING THEIR DIAGNOSES, OR IGNORING SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF THEIR CONDITIONS. SINCE CCSC IS FUNDED SOLELY THROUGH DONATIONS, FUNDRAISERS, AND GRANTS, WE ARE NOT CONSTRAINED BY INSURANCE COMPANIES. THIS UNIQUE POSITION ALLOWS US TO DEDICATE MORE TIME TO OUR PATIENTS, HELPING THEM UNDERSTAND THEIR DIAGNOSES AND PROVIDING THE HIGHEST-QUALITY CARE POSSIBLE TO OUR NEIGHBORS IN SHELBY COUNTY. COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS BETWEEN CCSC AND VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS ARE ESSENTIAL FOR INCREASING ACCESS TO CARE, IMPROVING PATIENT OUTCOMES, AND ENSURING SUSTAINABILITY. BY PARTNERING WITH THESE ORGANIZATIONS, WE CAN PROVIDE MORE COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES, REACH A BROADER POPULATION, AND ADDRESS THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH AFFECTING THE WELL-BEING OF UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES. WE HAVE COLLABORATED WITH MANY PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES TO SUPPORT OUR PRESCRIPTION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. RX ASSIST, AMERICARES, AND DIRECT RELIEF ARE VITAL SOURCES OF SUPPORT FOR CCSC. WHETHER THROUGH DONATIONS, EMERGENCY RELIEF, TRAINING, OR FUNDING, THESE PARTNERSHIPS ENHANCE OUR ABILITY TO PROVIDE QUALITY CARE TO THE UNDERSERVED. OUR ONGOING PARTNERSHIP WITH COMPUNET HAS BEEN CRUCIAL FOR OUR LAB WORK. WITHOUT THESE RELATIONSHIPS, WE WOULD STRUGGLE TO PROVIDE SERVICES TO OUR PATIENTS. THEY PLAY A VITAL ROLE IN OUR CLINIC AND COMMUNITY. CCSC CAN PROVIDE PRIMARY CARE, BUT MAY NOT ALWAYS HAVE THE RESOURCES TO HANDLE MORE COMPLEX MEDICAL CONDITIONS OR SPECIALTIES. WORKING WITH HOSPITALS (WILSON HEALTH, PREMIER, THE WEXNER CENTER, AND KETTERING HEALTH) CAN CREATE SIGNIFICANT OPPORTUNITIES TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO CARE, ENHANCE PATIENT OUTCOMES, AND SHARE RESOURCES. AS A TEAM, WE CAN EXPAND ACCESS TO ESSENTIAL HEALTHCARE SERVICES THROUGH SHARED RESOURCES, JOINT TRAINING PROGRAMS, PATIENT CO-MANAGEMENT, AND EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS EFFORTS. CCSC HAS PARTNERED WITH THE BREAST AND CERVICAL CANCER PROGRAM, WHICH PROVIDES US WITH ACCESS TO BREAST AND CERVICAL SCREENINGS, DIAGNOSTIC SERVICES, AND TREATMENT FOR WOMEN WHO ARE UNDERINSURED OR UNINSURED. FURTHERMORE, CCSC WORKS CLOSELY WITH JOB AND FAMILY SERVICES, PARTICULARLY THEIR MEDICAID/MEDICARE DEPARTMENT AND JOB APPLICATION SERVICES. WE COLLABORATE WITH NUMEROUS OTHER NON-PROFITS THROUGHOUT SHELBY COUNTY TO ASSIST ONE ANOTHER IN PROVIDING THE BEST CARE FOR OUR PATIENTS AND TO AVOID DUPLICATING EFFORTS. BY COLLABORATING WITH THESE ORGANIZATIONS, CCSC CAN STRENGTHEN OUR OPERATIONS, EXPAND OUR CAPABILITIES, AND ENSURE WE ARE EQUIPPED TO HANDLE EVERYDAY HEALTHCARE NEEDS. IN-KIND DONATIONS ARE VITAL TO COMPASSIONATE CARE'S OPERATIONS, AS THEY PROVIDE GOODS AND SERVICES THAT HELP REDUCE OPERATIONAL COSTS AND ENHANCE THE CLINIC'S ABILITY TO SERVE UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS. THESE DONATIONS CAN INCLUDE MEDICAL SUPPLIES, PHARMACEUTICALS, EQUIPMENT, VOLUNTEER TIME, AND OTHER RESOURCES, ALL OF WHICH HELP ENSURE THAT CCSC CAN DELIVER QUALITY CARE WITHOUT IMPOSING AN UNDUE FINANCIAL BURDEN ON ITS LIMITED RESOURCES. ONE OF OUR KEY PARTNERSHIPS IS WITH COMPUNET, WHICH HAS PROVIDED US WITH 275 LAB TESTS VALUED AT OVER 10,612.33. THIS AMOUNT VARIES EACH YEAR BASED ON THE TESTS ORDERED FOR OUR PATIENTS. COMPUNET GENEROUSLY PROVIDES US WITH A COMPUTER SYSTEM THAT CONNECTS DIRECTLY TO OUR ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS (EMR) SYSTEM, ENABLING TEST RESULTS TO BE SENT TO COMPASSIONATE CARE WITHIN 24 HOURS. ADDITIONALLY, THEY PICK UP OUR LAB SAMPLES FROM OUR CLINIC FREE OF CHARGE EVERY NIGHT. WE ARE ALSO FORTUNATE TO COLLABORATE WITH SEVERAL OTHER ORGANIZATIONS, INCLUDING AMERICARES, DIRECT RELIEF, HENRY SCHEIN, AND RX ASSIST, WHICH PROVIDE MEDICATIONS AND MEDICAL AND DENTAL SUPPLIES FOR OUR PATIENTS. IN 2024 ALONE, THE TOTAL VALUE OF THIS ASSISTANCE AMOUNTED TO 1,072,751.38. WE ARE TRULY GRATEFUL FOR THE MANY INDIVIDUALS, COMPANIES, PARTNERSHIPS, AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO COME TOGETHER TO ENSURE THE EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT FUNCTIONING OF OUR ORGANIZATION. IN-KIND DONATIONS ARE INDISPENSABLE TO THE SUCCESS AND SUSTAINABILITY OF CCSC. THEY HELP REDUCE OPERATIONAL COSTS, EXPAND SERVICE OFFERINGS, AND PROVIDE CRITICAL CARE TO UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS WHO MAY NOT OTHERWISE HAVE ACCESS TO ESSENTIAL MEDICAL AND SOCIAL SERVICES. VOLUNTEERS PLAY A VITAL ROLE IN COMPASSIONATE CARE. IN 2024, DEDICATED INDIVIDUALS CONTRIBUTED 571 HOURS TO CCSC, RESULTING IN AN ESTIMATED SAVINGS OF 392,468.00 FOR OUR DONORS' INVESTMENTS. CCSC IS ALWAYS IN NEED OF MEDICAL AND DENTAL PROVIDERS TO OFFER ESSENTIAL CARE TO OUR PATIENTS. CCSC CAN UTILIZE VOLUNTEERS IN VARIOUS ROLES, INCLUDING MEDICAL ASSISTANTS, PHLEBOTOMISTS, FRONT DESK STAFF, QUALITY CARE NURSES, DENTAL HYGIENISTS, DATA ENTRY PERSONNEL, DENTAL ASSISTANTS, REGISTERED NURSES, NURSE PRACTITIONERS, AND THOSE WHO CAN ASSIST WITH MAINTENANCE, IT WORK, CLEANING, PAINTING, AND FUNDRAISING EFFORTS. WE ARE ALWAYS SEEKING VOLUNTEERS TO HELP OUR CLINIC PROVIDE EVERYDAY MEDICAL CARE.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
