Shred the Debt is a collaborative Global Shapers initiative bringing together hubs to help eliminate medical debt for people facing financial hardship.
Through the initiative, participating hubs mobilize their communities, build awareness, and raise funds in support of Undue Medical Debt, a nonprofit that purchases qualifying medical debt in portfolios and eliminates it for individuals and families.
The Global Shapers Houston Hub is proud to participate in Shred the Debt, contributing to the broader effort by engaging our local community and fundraising toward the initiative’s collective impact.
Shred the Debt brings Global Shapers hubs together around a shared mission: turning local fundraising efforts into collective action against the burden of medical debt.
The Houston Hub is one of the participating hubs supporting Shred the Debt : mobilizing our network, partners, and community to contribute to the initiative’s broader fundraising effort.
Funds raised support Undue Medical Debt’s work to acquire and eliminate qualifying medical debt, helping provide financial relief to people and families who need it most.
