If you want to touch the life of an individual in need, consider giving up a monthly energy drink, lunch out, or coffee. Your gift of $5 to $10 per month will change a life in one of the following ways and so many more. All of these items are life saving in one way or another. Just think, how many lives would be changed if you asked just five of your friends to do the same.​

​

• $5/month will purchase healthy snacks for all the kids attending a day of summer camp.

• $10/month will pay the race fees of 3 community races for a member of Running Strong.

• $5/month will purchase a blood pressure cuff for someone needing to protect their life by lowering their blood pressure.

• $10/month will purchase 400 lancets and a sharps container for someone living with diabetes.​

 

Giving the equivalent of one single energy drink or lunch out per month could literally save someone's life.​

Importance of the Medicine Wheel:

​

IHCRC CEO Carmelita Wamego Skeeter once said, “Embracing the teachings of the Medicine Wheel, we honor the past and nurture the future of Native American health.” IHCRC’s logo includes this meaningful symbol, used by almost all the Native people of North and South America. The Medicine Wheel teaches us that we have four aspects to our nature: the physical, the mental, the emotional, and the spiritual.
