Our Story

“How can I bring health to as many people as possible?”

"How could I help people outside of my direct care?"


These questions challenged  Wade Licup, MD, Founder & President of 37 °C  Charities: Hub for Health. He knew becoming a physician would help him heal people, but felt he could do more.


When Dr. Licup & his mother, Christine Castro, DMD, discussed their future, it dawned upon them. To form an organization that empowers people for their health.  


37°C ("Thirty Seven Degrees Celsius) is the standard human body temperature, and it represented the family's vision- To provide what they believed should be standard health & dental care.
