Sirum (YC W15 Nonprofit) helps start first free pharmacy in California

We had some concerns that drug manufacturers would think that we were cannibalizing their revenue, however, the medicine is going to the uninsured or people who could not afford their co-pay or deductible so that concern never seemed to materialize. In fact, since launching we have had several manufacturers who had over-produced approach us to make donations. Despite the popular examples to the contrary, I do think that most people in the industry do want to improve access to medication and view it as a basic human right.
