We are a community-based charitable organization that works to provide funds to support and assist in meeting the many health challenges that face the people of WNC. We provide direct support and also empower carefully selected nonprofits to impact individual and community wellness in our communities throughout the WNC region.
We remain committed to listening, learning, and embracing feedback from our community.
