Help Spread Some Good Karma!

Doesn’t it seem like we’re always asked for donations at THE worst possible time?  You know, like during the holidays when our budgets thin, and we’re just trying to provide for our own families? The holidays are magic and who wouldn’t want to bring a little magic to someone in need?  While we all want to do what we can, we empathize that sometimes that can be tough. So, we thought, why not take a collection year round? Ask when finances aren’t stretched so thin? So, The Center for Health Promotion will be taking collection of various items that can fill our Karma Boxes and lend a hand to those that are in need – year round.  We’ve curated a list to help guide you and we’ll make sure those items get to the appropriate people and locations.
