InterFaith Health Center supporters gathered at the Cherokee Country Club for an elegant soiree to support the Center. Guests at the black-tie event enjoyed cocktails, a delicious dinner, casino games and a silent auction featuring high end bourbon and jewels. InterFaith Health Center provides accessible, affordable and quality health care to the working uninsured or underserved, primarily through the support of individuals, the religious, health care and business communities. These services are provided within the capacity of the Center regardless of race, sex, creed, age, religion, national origin or ability to pay. Since the Clinic opened its doors in 1991, it has provided more than 400,000 patient encounters to over 24,000 hardworking East Tennesseans.
