The Great Falls Patriot Run 5 K Race and Walk

On July 2, 2021, our team participated in The Great Falls Patriot Run/Walk.  100% of our runner/walker fees went directly to pay hospital, doctor, labs and pharmaceutical bills of the registered cancer patient’s.  The run/walk was our chance to give back to those patient’s of the Falls Cancer Club, who are not able to participate  in all of the fun activities because of their daily fight with cancer.  As a group, we met in Cuyahoga Falls and walk/ran the mapped out course to support the Falls Cancer Club

Christmas Give Back

As partners in the healthcare system, we share a passion for our patients and a commitment to their overall health. A big part of that, is a sense of community and friendship. We, as a group, have given long term care facilities a way to make their holiday season a little brighter over the last few years. Our providers talk with their long term care facilities every year and ask which patients may be in need for the Christmas season. Facilities provide us 3-5 patients who do not receive any holiday gifts or those who may be in need of personal items. Our team then shops, packs and delivers those items for those patients so that they will have something to enjoy for Christmas.

This year we donated Christmas gifts to 112 patients in nursing homes in the Akron and Youngstown areas.  We are excited to continue this giveback next year.
