A year ago, the COVID-19 pandemic affected all of our communities. We asked, and our foolish community answered the call by making additional donations to Health Research Incorporated for what was then the epicenter of the American outbreak, New York, and / or by taking action in their local community. The responses we received were nothing short of inspiring! Together we supported the economic needs of key workers, first responders and our neighbors in the midst of the crisis. You showed your collective strength and the remarkable impact we can make when we unite as a force for good. Thank you!
