Health & Wellness
Healthy & Whole
We were made to flourish. But unfortunately, in the world we live in, not everyone does. In fact, many people groups suffer. Whether it's people who are in need of a blood transfusion, those living in poverty searching for their next meal, or those facing the reality of chemo, intensive surgery, or hospice—all of these people are in need of something.
Whatever you're able to give, whether that's blood, food, money, or attention, these organizations below will help you use your time and resources to help someone else flourish.
And we believe that's what life is all about.
