We were so grateful to pass along donations.

The team from Elevance Health invited us to join their Giving Tuesday activation where their team engaged in activities around giving back.

We were thrilled to be a part! During the event, donations were collected for our impact partners at CCHASM. The team also raised funds for our Share Your Table campaign, helping provide supplies and essentials for our community to stay warm this winter.

Thank you, Elevance for turning hope into action this holiday season.
