About Us
It began as “Help All, Serve All”
Universal Health Aid (UHA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the health and well-being of underserved communities across the United States. Our mission is rooted in the belief that quality healthcare should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
Founded by passionate medical students and healthcare professionals, UHA has grown into a nationwide movement with chapters across multiple states. Each chapter operates independently while sharing our core values of compassion, service, and community empowerment.
Through our diverse programs from health fairs and screenings to grocery delivery events and educational workshops we strive to address the holistic needs of the communities we serve.
