The doors of Henry Countys free clinic will remain open, for now, thanks to the generosity of its four municipalities.
The free clinic, Hands of Hope, was faced with possibly having to turn away patients due to a lack of funds, according to Executive Director Ruth Rucker. She said the clinic is in desperate need of more funds.
