UPDATE 2/1/13: We’ve raised $99,000 $110,000 thanks to your contributions!
Here’s something that animates our hope for the future…
Rolling Jubilee started a month ago as a citizen-based crowd-sourcing project that transforms the lives of ordinary citizens through the principle of debt forgiveness. It’s a fascinating true tale that you too can be a part of.
Shocking But True…
Two thirds of personal bankruptcies in America are due to medical debt. Not gambling or credit card debts. Medical debt. Many families that get ill or hurt come out of the ordeal financially bankrupt. So while you might have your health back, you’ve lost the ability to buy a home, get a loan, or just simply get on with life. Just because you got sick or hurt.
Here Comes The Brilliant Social Innovation…
Medical debt operates in a shadow secondary economy. Insurance companies write off these debts as a tax credit, then bundle them up and sell them to collection agencies for just 5 cents on the dollar!
That’s where the visionary folks at Rolling Jubilee come in. They wondered, why don’t we start buying this medical debt (for five cents on the dollar) and clean up the mess the government or healthcare industry won’t do by itself. And they have. So far, Rolling Jubilee has raised $491,078 of contributions which in turn forgives almost $10 million of personal medical debt.
Here’s the beauty: every $5 leverages into $100 of debt forgiveness.
