William, a retired dermatologist, and Nancy, a retired nurse, were the founders of the Neighborhood Health Clinic currently operated out of donated space in Grand Central Station off 10th Street near downtown Naples. They volunteer their time offering medical care and they have helped recruit hundreds of other doctors and nurses to donate their time to work in the facility. I can't believe my name would be mentioned in the same breath as the people we share the podium with tonight. Eligible patients must be residents of Collier County and be employed but without private health insurance. Patients must have a family income of less than 150 percent of federal poverty guidelines.
Patients pay one hour's wage for a clinic visit.

He said that observation is most fitting in describing the Lascheids. In many of these activities the ultimate benefactors have been the poor and the disenfranchised.
