Lifting Health and
Well-Being, Together
The 2024 Grant Awards Ceremony Has been Canceled
The entire team at the Health Foundation is deeply saddened by the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene in our community. The impact has profoundly affected so many, and we are glad to see the early stages of recovery are underway.
With this in mind, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the grant award ceremony that was scheduled for October 8 at the Village Green.
Our focus is on providing support to our community as we work towards recovery from the hurricane. Instead of the awards ceremony, we will be utilizing those resources to aid in the disaster relief efforts.
