Community Partnerships
Overview
Community Partnerships are the heartbeat of our mission, and we’re thrilled to spotlight the community collaborations led by our board member, Jessie Levandoski, for the Medical Go Kits initiative. Jessie’s dedication to improving access to essential healthcare supplies has been the catalyst for forging meaningful connections with local businesses and organizations in Albuquerque and Rio Rancho, NM.
These partnerships make it easier than ever for supporters to contribute to this life-changing program by donating items at convenient drop-off locations.
What Are Medical Go Kits?
The Medical Go Kits initiative provides essential health supplies, including feminine hygiene products and basic first aid kits, to underserved communities locally and globally. Each kit is a small step toward promoting health equity and empowering families to care for their health with dignity and resilience.
