Our partners at @cityofhope have the opportunity to host a panel discussion at SXSW and need your vote to make it happen! The panel they're proposing would focus on equitable care for those living with cancer, advocating for government intervention to make care more accessible for all, especially marginalized communities. Among the proposed panel members is our CEO Gary Puckrein. Let's work together to bring this to life at SXSW. Voting is open now until August 18th! Visit https://lnkd.in/eY8pc9ky to vote.

Last weekend, we brought the team (Akeia Blue, MPH, MS, Marilyn Prempeh, Dane White, Leslie Zuniga, and Shantia Horsford, MBS) and our sponsors out to Oakland, California at Hope Center Church for another mini-health clinic! We had a great turnout, with community members coming by for BMI screenings, behavioral health consultations, blood pressure checks, and more. Thanks to our partners, we were able to also offer free food, a Zumba class, henna art, and face painting. Thanks to Baywell Health Community, National Kidney Foundation, San Francisco State University, and Gilead Sciences for their support!
