Celebrating Community! A Fundraiser for Traverse Health Clinic


Traverse Health Clinic is about to pull off something big! With construction underway, they have plans to move into a new, larger facility later this year!

The new location, right on Garfield Road, will be nearly double their current space, and allow them to increase their patient capacity by 50%! That means they can provide primary care and mental health counseling to over 4,000 community members each year, and 17,000 patient visits!

Community support has been critical in making this happen, so we would like to celebrate with food, music and a silent auction full of exciting goodies…
