Everyone deserves the opportunity to live a healthy, vibrant life. Our mission is to achieve health equity and transform lives through innovative programs, made possible by community support. This work is further strengthened by our strong partnership with Summit Health, New Jersey’s oldest and largest multispecialty medical group. For over a decade, their unwavering support has allowed us to engage doctors and healthcare professionals in working together to strengthen and uplift the communities we serve.

Through the power of community, committed volunteers, and targeted resources, we deliver vital care and programs that support health, healing, and overall well-being. From education to direct services, we work to ensure individuals and families have the tools, knowledge, and support they need to thrive. Our impact is measured not only in numbers but in the everyday lives we uplift—building healthier communities and a more equitable future for all.

Last week, we kicked off our Back-to-School backpa Last week, we kicked off our Back-to-School backpack deliveries at St. Joseph’s in Elizabeth, NJ! Each backpack was filled with school supplies to help students feel ready and confident for the new year, all packed with care by our amazing volunteers and made possible by our generous supporters. ❤️📚

While we were there, we also offered free blood pressure and A1C screenings to community members, along with health education to keep families informed and empowered. 🩺

We’re proud to support students as they head back to school and just as proud to be a resource for their families’ health. More deliveries coming soon! #SHCares #BacktoSchool2025

Last week, our Care Crew joined El Centro Hispano Last week, our Care Crew joined El Centro Hispano Inc. in White Plains to assemble 270 backpacks filled with essential school supplies for local students. Each backpack was packed with care thanks to our amazing volunteers and supporters and meant to be distributed over the course of three days. But the need was so great that 237 backpacks were given out on the very first day! 🎒💙

Judith Aucar, El Centro’s Executive Director, shared that the children and parents were happy, grateful, and wanted to thank us from the bottom of their hearts. “We feel privileged to have been chosen to be part of this initiative,” she wrote.

We are incredibly proud to support El Centro’s mission and legacy and honored to stand alongside partners who are deeply rooted in their community. This is what it’s all about: meeting real needs with real care. #SHCares #BacktoSchool2025 #ElCentroHispano
