A great day at the Andrew and Walter Young Family YMCA Toy and Coat Giveaway! Tons to do for the entire family. Thanks to Walgreens and the The National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc. for joining forces to bring the gift of health this holiday season. Together we were able to provide flu and COVID shots and educational resources. Here’s to a healthy community!

The Center for Black Women’s Wellness is proud to announce a grant in the amount of $45,000 from the Dental Community Care Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Delta Dental Ins. This grant is part of the Ecosystem of Barriers program, aimed at reducing the barriers that uninsured, underinsured, historically oppressed, or underserved people face. CBWW is thrilled to receive this support, which will support the screening for basic needs, allow us to address common barriers to care, such as transportation and essential needs, and improve care for more patients.
