BREAKING: Dan Marino Quietly Deploys “Healing Station” Mobile Clinic to Texas Flood Zones
“Healing means more than just rebuilding homes.”
Kerrville, TX — July 15, 2025
In the aftermath of Texas’ historic flooding, most aid efforts have focused on food, temporary shelter, and infrastructure cleanup. But early this morning, a new kind of relief quietly arrived in a flood-ravaged neighborhood in Kerrville — not with flashing lights or news cameras, but with purpose.
A large white truck rolled in and opened its doors, not to offload supplies, but to welcome in patients. Inside was a fully operational mobile medical clinic — funded personally and discreetly by Miami Dolphins Hall of Famer Dan Marino through his Still Standing Fund.
Dubbed the “Healing Station,” the unit is designed to provide emergency medical treatment and rotating mental health care to underserved communities affected by the floods. From minor infections and prescription refills to counseling and trauma support, the mobile unit is helping residents recover from both the visible and invisible wounds of the disaster.
“There are clinics and shelters in the city, but rural folks are often forgotten,” said one local volunteer nurse. “Dan’s team came out here with no big announcement — just quiet help. That’s what made it so powerful.”
The effort was launched without a press conference, without any promotional banners or endorsements. In fact, many locals only found out Marino was behind the project after recognizing a small Dolphins logo tucked inside the clinic wall — a silent nod to the man whose foundation funded the mission.
For Marino, this initiative is deeply personal. Known for his precision on the field, he’s long carried a quiet intensity off it — particularly when it comes to philanthropy focused on health, families, and resilience. Through the Still Standing Fund, Marino has supported neurological care, autism research, and now, post-disaster recovery across vulnerable regions of the country.
In a note shared with clinic staff, Marino wrote:
> “I don’t need them to remember me. I just want them to remember… someone came.”
His words reflect the quiet humility behind the mission — and his belief that healing isn’t just about medicine or rebuilding homes. It’s about being seen, heard, and reminded that someone still cares when the headlines fade.
Despite managing his own health issues in recent years, Marino remains deeply active in charitable outreach. The “Healing Station” is expected to travel across several flood-affected counties over the next four weeks, with doctors, therapists, and volunteers operating on rotating shifts. No insurance or ID is required for treatment — just a name and a need.
Locals are calling the clinic a godsend. One woman, whose home was destroyed and who hadn’t seen a doctor in months, put it simply:
> “They saved more than my health. They gave me hope.”
Dan Marino, once the heart of Miami on the gridiron, continues to show what leadership looks like off the field. In a time when so many seek headlines, Marino seeks impact — proving once again that real champions never stop showing up.
