A story of love, community, and the belief that everyone deserves access to quality healthcare.
Kevin's Community Center, Inc. (KCC) was founded in 2002 as a tax-exempt, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization by Dr. and Mrs. Z. Michael Taweh, in loving memory of their son Kevin — to address the health care crisis in Connecticut for uninsured and underinsured adult residents of Newtown, Bridgewater and Roxbury.
Dr. Taweh led a community-wide, grassroots effort involving state and municipal government and the business, medical, financial, nonprofit and religious sectors — and the citizens who had a stake in the well-being of their community.
To date, KCC has provided more than 5,000 patient visits and delivered more than $2,500,000 in free medical care, including specialty care referrals.
