Penang Adventist Hospital  The charity arm of the hospital has come a long way since its early beginnings, however its initial mission of serving the poor has not diminished till this day. Back in the days when the hospital was known to many as the "Seventh-Day Adventist Mission Clinic" proudly displayed on the signboard of the clinic were the words, "Poor Treated Free." That's precisely what was practiced - no fees were accepted from poor patients. To this very day, the hospital's mission remains the same and has continued to provide quality healthcare even to those unable to fully meet the cost of their medical bills. This is made possible due to the availability of the hospital’s various funds.
