When you think of someone who has a life expectancy of 13 years shorter than you, your mind probably goes to a third world country halfway across the globe. You think of individuals and families who are living in countries with very few doctors and hospitals and have limited access to resources such as electricity and running water.

However, to find someone who is expected to live 13 years less than you, you don’t have to catch a plane to another country… instead you simply need to drive a few miles down the street.

The life expectancy gap in Atlanta is drastic, and your partnership with The Good Samaritan Health Center, also known to the community as Good Sam, is the first step to provide vital solutions to this enormous problem.
