Healthy Beginnings is partnering with Ben and Jerry’s in support of the health and well-being of young children in our community. Representatives from Healthy Beginnings will also be present to describe services and answer questions.
Donations will be accepted with all proceeds from this event dedicated to assisting kids and families in your community ensuring that every child has a healthy beginning.
Last year Ben & Jerry’s customers provided nearly $1,300 in donations from this event with all proceeds supporting essential services to local kids and families. “Events like this have helped Healthy Beginnings screen and refer nearly 1,000 children last year and without community sponsors, our work could not take place” says Holly Remer, the Executive Director of the program.
