It was hot, but it was worth it. Another climb in the books for DASC! This year, by partnering with other amazing perinatal health providers, we were able to exceed our fundraising goals and raise over $3800 for perinatal mental health! And the best news? Donations can still be made through the end of the month. So check out the link in our bio to donate today. And if you missed out this year, no worries, our climb team will be back at it again next fall!
