All the recipients at the August 7th ceremony at the Clarinda Lied Public Library 
Team Pop Health with their grant award
On August 7th the Clarinda Foundation had an award ceremony to recognize all the recipients of their grants from 2019. The Clarinda Medical Foundation was awarded a $10,000 grant to help support CRHC’s Junior Cardinal Backpack program. CRHC’s Greg Jones was proud to accept this grant award at the ceremony on behalf of the Medical Foundation and the Population Health Team here at CRHC.
The Backpack program is important to CRHC because it directly affects children in our community who struggle with food insecurity. Data suggests that “1 in 6 children in Iowa or 13% of all children in Page County are food insecure.” (data provided by Page Co Pubic Health)
If you want to get involved with our efforts or help support the Junior Cardinal Packpack Program, please visit our website, ClarindaHealth.com, or reach out to Population Health Manger, Molly Gilmore for more information.
