FILLING IN GAPS
For too many Wake County residents, the cost of a prescription or basic medical supply is out of reach. No one should have to choose between caring for their health and paying for necessities like food, housing, or transportation.
That’s why FIGS works alongside local nonprofits, health care providers, pharmacies, volunteers, and donors to fill in gaps in access to medications, medical supplies, and basic health resources.
By bringing together the people and resources already at work in our community, we help more Wake County residents get what they need to live healthier lives.
OUR MISSION
Fill in gaps for Wake County residents needing help purchasing their medications and medical supplies.
OUR VISION
All Wake County residents have access to affordable health care and medical supplies.
WHAT WE DO
A prescription. A blood pressure monitor. Cold medicine. A first-aid kit.
When cost or lack of insurance puts these out of reach, it can significantly impact someone’s health.
FIGS works through community partners to connect Wake County residents with essential resources through:
Prescription Assistance
Medical Supplies + Chronic Disease Support
Caring Measures Blood Pressure Program
Wellness Center at Wake Relief Food Pantry
Health Kits + Over-the-Counter Medicine
Community Health Partnerships
Our Impact
When our community comes together, every contribution adds up to incredible impact: more people with the medications they need, more families with basic health supplies, and fewer barriers to better health.
