Health care is a human right

let's ensure everyone hears this news.

At GoFundMe, we believe that access to affordable, comprehensive health care is a right, not a privilege. Unfortunately, millions of Americans have lost their health insurance, leaving them unprotected in the midst of the worst public health crisis our nation has seen in over a century. But, there's hope. In response to the COVID-19 crisis, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has established a special enrollment period. From February 15 - May 15, people across the country can access affordable, quality health care coverage on HealthCare.gov. We want to do our part to help more folks stay healthy and find the care they need; that is why we are spreading the news about the special enrollment period. As a member of the GoFundMe community, we know you also believe in the power of helping others. So together, let's ensure everyone hears this message. Visit HealthCare.gov to learn more.
