Our 2024 Strength In Colors 5K & KIDS DASH was a blast, Thanks to YOU!

We hosted 169 participants and raised over $16,000 together!! We couldn’t have done it without you! Helping Hands Health and Wellness Center and TCC’s Patient Support Program received grants. These grants would not have been possible without our volunteers, sponsors, community partners, special guest speakers, donors, and the participants! We are forever grateful to each of you and look forward to continuing our mission with passion and purpose!
