Our Card Drive for Hospital Patients spread kindness and encouragement to those in need. Volunteers created heartfelt, handmade cards with uplifting messages to bring joy to patients during their hospital stay. This initiative aimed to brighten their day and remind them that they were not alone. These cards were donated to Huntley Northwestern Hospital.

HEAAL donated 200+ bookmarks to students in elementary schools to educate them about public health and various health topics.
