🌍 Care4 Spotted in the Wild β€” New Zealand Edition!

One of our amazing Care4 supporters, Cathy, just took a piece of our mission halfway around the world! βœˆοΈπŸ’™ She was spotted traveling through beautiful Milford Sound, New Zealand carrying her original Care4 duffle bag β€” the very same one from 10 years ago!

Not only is that bag built to last, but so is her support! Moments like this remind us that the Care4 community reaches far beyond our local events β€” it travels, it endures, and it connects us wherever we go.

Have you taken your Care4 gear on an adventure? We’d love to see where it’s been! Share your photos and help us keep spotting Care4 in the wild. πŸ§­πŸ’›

🧠✨ Trivia Truesday! ✨🧠

The Care4 Breast Cancer 5K just celebrated it's 25th anniversary in 2025. How many people participated in it's inaugural year? Answer in the comments!

Did you guess last week’s question correctly?
FHPC has been a trendsetter since its inception. Which of the following is true?

βœ”οΈ FHPC hired the first nurse practitioner in the county
βœ”οΈ FHPC hired the first staff dedicated to interpreting
βœ”οΈ FHPC was the first healthcare facility to integrate mental health and physical health

πŸ₯ Answer: ALL THREE are correct! πŸ₯

From day one, FHPC has been committed to breaking barriers and making innovative, compassionate care accessible to everyone in our community. Because everyone deserves healthcare. ❀️

πŸ’™ One morning. One cause. One incredible show of unity. πŸ’™

All year long, our local high school cheer and dance teams face off as competitors β€” pushing each other, striving for titles, and repping their schools with pride.

But on Care4 Sunday morning, something special happens!

The rivalries fade. The uniforms change. And these amazing athletes come together with one purpose: to cheer on our Care4 participants. πŸŽ‰

Side by side, they clap, chant, dance, and lift up every walker and runner who crosses the start line β€” reminding us all that when it comes to caring for our community, we are stronger united than divided!

Thank you to these talented students for showing us what teamwork, compassion, and community spirit truly look like. πŸ’«

πŸ’˜ This Valentine’s Day, we’re celebrating love in motion. πŸ’˜

Love looks like showing up.
Love looks like walking beside someone through their hardest days.
Love looks like making sure everyone has access to preventative care and early detection.

At the Care4 Breast Cancer 5K, every step taken is an act of love β€” for survivors, for fighters, for families, and for a community that believes healthcare should be available to all.

Today, we’re sending love to everyone who has walked, run, volunteered, donated, and supported this mission. Because when a community leads with heart, hope follows. πŸ’•πŸŽ—οΈ

Happy Valentine’s Day from the Care4 5K β€” where love always wins.

πŸŒ§οΈπŸ’— Nothing can keep us from celebrating. πŸ’—πŸŒ§οΈ

Not the rain.
Not the cold.
Not the puddles at the start line.

The Care4 Breast Cancer 5K was filled with laughter, music, pink tutus, medals held high, and moments worth celebrating β€” because every step taken represents hope, strength, and access to lifesaving care.

We celebrated survivors.
We celebrated fighters.
We honored the loved ones we lost much too soon.
We celebrated families and friends walking together.
And we celebrated a community that shows up β€” no matter the forecast.

Because when it comes to early detection, preventative care, and standing beside those impacted by breast cancer, nothing stops us!

Thank you to everyone who ran, walked, volunteered, danced, cheered, and made this day unforgettable. Rain or shine, this community knows how to turn purpose into celebration. πŸ’•πŸŽ—οΈ

A huge THANK YOU to Cross Kicks Fitness- Algonquin for their incredible support of the Care4 Breast Cancer 5K!

CKF owner Tony, along with Devin, owner of the Cross Kicks Fitness - McHenry location, stopped by to drop off their β€œRun for the Rack” donations totaling more than $2,500 β€” and we are beyond grateful!

This generous gift helps ensure access to preventative care and early detection for individuals in our community who need it most. Because of partners like CrossKicks Fitness, more neighbors can receive lifesaving screenings and compassionate care β€” regardless of insurance or income.

πŸ’— This is what community looks like. πŸ’—

It’s neighbors walking side by side.
Students cheering strangers on.
Volunteers standing in the rain.
Survivors, families, friends β€” all showing up for one another.

The Care4 Breast Cancer 5K is more than a race. It’s a powerful reminder that when someone in our community is facing breast cancer, they are never alone.

Together, we rally to ensure access to preventative care, early detection, and compassionate healthcare β€” because no one should have to choose between their health and their finances.

This day reflects the very best of our community: kindness, connection, and the belief that caring for one another makes us stronger!

Thank you to everyone who walked, ran, volunteered, donated, and cheered. This is what happens when a community comes together β€” hope grows, barriers fall, and lives are changed. πŸ’•πŸŽ—οΈ

πŸ’— Running for a reason. πŸ’—

Rain, cold, wind β€” none of it stopped this community.

At the Care4 Breast Cancer 5K, over a thousand people showed up for something bigger than a finish line. They walked. They ran. They volunteered. They cheered. All to make sure everyone has access to preventative care and early detection, no matter their income or insurance status.

Because early detection saves lives.
Because healthcare should never be a luxury.
Because when one person faces cancer, an entire community stands with them.

This event is a powerful reminder of who we are β€” neighbors showing up for neighbors, united by hope, compassion, and the belief that access to care can change everything.

Thank you to every participant, sponsor, volunteer, survivor, and supporter who ran for a reason and helped make this day β€” and this mission β€” possible. πŸ’•πŸŽ—οΈ

β˜•πŸ’— Grateful for Heady Cup Coffee Co! πŸ’—β˜•

A huge THANK YOU to Heady Cup Coffee Co, who brewed up generosity in the most delicious way! During their October "Beans for B***s" campaign, they donated a portion of their online sales β€” raising $491 for Family Health Partnership Clinic in support of the Care4 Breast Cancer 5K.

Their gift helps ensure that uninsured patients have access to lifesaving early detection and routine preventative care β€” the kind of care that saves lives and keeps families whole.

We’re incredibly thankful for partners like Heady Cup Coffee Roasters who use creativity, compassion, and caffeine to fuel a healthier community. β˜•πŸ’ž

THIS is why supporting LOCAL Small Businesses matters! They support the causes near and dear to you!
