Rx4HIM: A Foundation for Healing and Hope
At TwelveStone Health Partners, we view healthcare as a ministry that serves the body and the spirit. We founded Rx4HIM to put this belief into practice. Rx4HIM is a non-profit foundation that allows us to give back to our community and the world in a tangible way. We believe that true success is measured by how much we can help others, which is why we integrated this foundation directly into our business model.
We fund Rx4HIM through a tithing process derived from our corporate profitability. When TwelveStone succeeds, we set aside a portion of that success to fund works of compassion. This financial structure ensures that our growth directly supports vulnerable populations. We distribute these funds with care to ensure they have the greatest possible impact on those who need help the most.
Who We Serve: Our Benefactors
We direct the funds and resources from Rx4HIM toward four specific groups. By focusing our efforts, we can provide deeper, more meaningful support where it counts. Our benefactors include:
TwelveStone Employees: We care for the people who care for our patients. We provide funds to support pastoral services for our team members to ensure their spiritual and emotional well-being.
Community Organizations: We believe in the power of partnership. We offer financial support to other faith-based, non-profit healthcare organizations that serve our local community.
The Indigent: We maintain a benevolence fund to support marginalized patients in our service area who cannot afford the cost of their medication.
Global Missionaries: We provide funding and supplies for medical missions to third-world countries to ensure care reaches the ends of the earth.
The Benevolence Fund
Healthcare costs create a heavy burden for many families in our region. When patients face financial hardship, they often skip doses or leave prescriptions unfilled, ultimately compromising their health and leading to more serious medical complications down the road. We established the Rx4HIM benevolence fund to prevent this outcome.
We identify patients in our service area who are truly marginalized and lack the resources to pay for treatment. Rx4HIM steps in to cover their medication expenses. This act of benevolence removes the financial barrier between a patient and their recovery. It allows them to focus on getting better rather than worrying about the bill. We manage these costs so that our neighbors can live healthier, fuller lives regardless of their financial status.
Supporting Global Medical Missions
Our commitment to care extends far beyond our local zip codes. Rx4HIM creates a bridge between our pharmaceutical resources and missionaries serving in developing nations. We understand that medical professionals in these regions often face severe shortages of basic supplies. We work to fill those shelves and equip the teams that serve the world’s most vulnerable populations.
Long-Term Clinic Solutions
Clinics operating in remote or impoverished areas of the world require a steady stream of resources to function. Without reliable access to medicine, their ability to treat patients diminishes. Rx4HIM supports these long-term settings by helping them obtain medications, medical equipment, and supplies.
We offer these essential items at wholesale costs. This significant reduction in price allows clinics to stretch their budgets further. It ensures they can maintain day-to-day operations and continue their ministry without interruption.
Short-Term Mission Trips
We also support medical teams that travel abroad for short-term service projects. These teams often set up temporary clinics to treat specific populations with urgent needs. Rx4HIM partners with these groups to supply the medications and tools they require for their specific mission.
By offering these supplies at a wholesale rate, we help mission teams maximize their impact. They can carry more medicine and treat more patients because they spend less on procurement. This logistical support allows the medical staff to focus entirely on patient care.
Resources for Missionary Health and Training
Missionaries and their families face unique health risks when they move to foreign countries. Access to a pharmacy is not always guaranteed, and local medications may be scarce. Rx4HIM provides practical solutions to keep these servants safe while they work in the field.
We offer Health Medication Kits designed specifically for international travel. These kits come in a convenient, reusable package and contain both prescription and over-the-counter medications. Having these resources on hand provides peace of mind and immediate treatment options for common illnesses.
Education is just as important as supply. Rx4HIM offers medication advice and training seminars for missionaries. We teach individuals and families how to use their medical kits effectively. We provide this training before departure or while the team is on the field. This ensures that every missionary feels confident and prepared to handle health issues as they arise.
Rx4HIM represents the heart of our company. We invite you to learn more about how we support faith-based healthcare and how we can partner with you.

After nearly four months of shut-down due to the coronavirus pandemic, our nation is finally in the process of reopening. Most states are following a multi-stage strategy for which businesses and organizations can reopen first, as well as guidelines that have to be followed. Although some states’ guidelines are more stringent than others, most agree that there must be no compromises when it comes to reopening our long-term care (LTC) facilities. These facilities have borne the brunt of our nation’s COVID-19 fatalities.
