There is so much truth to this! #healthequitymatters

[TayZonday @TayZonday]

Being poor now just leads to being more poor later. Can't pay to clean your teeth? Next year, pay for a root canal. Can't pay for a new mattress? Next year, pay for back surgery. Can't pay to get that lump checked out? Next year, pay for stage 3 cancer. Poverty charges interest.

In 2017, AmeriCorps VISTA members generated $206 million in cash and in-kind resources to support local efforts to overcome poverty.

That's more than DOUBLE every dollar invested in the program. #GetThingsDone #IamVISTA
