Events to support our mission
Annual Fundraiser
Our annual fundraising event, A Toast to Health, highlights WelcomeHealth's medical and dental accomplishments by honoring a special volunteer, donor or community partner with the Jessie Bryant “Service First” Award.
This year’s event was held on Friday, August 9 at the Janelle Y. Hembree Alumni House on the University of Arkansas campus. We proudly presented the Jessie Bryant Service First Award to our largest and most loyal supporter, the Willard & Pat Walker Charitable Foundation.
The event was from 6-9 p.m. and approximately 120 people attended. During the event, we made a plea for mental health support by introducing the Macke Mental Wellness Initiative named after long-time friend of our clinic, Mandy Macke. We had hoped to raise $15,000 for the new program and feel a bit short. If you are interested in supporting our efforts, a gift can be made using the QR code below.

Third Party Events:
Design Your Own Fundraiser
Invite all your closest friends and relatives for your birthday party, but in lieu of gifts, ask for a donation to WelcomeHealth. Make a gift in honor of a teacher, mentor or friend. Send memorials for a special person who has passed. Create your own peer-to-peer fundraising event in which you go bowling, have a bake sale, yard sale, walk or race and ask your peers to support your efforts in raising money for WelcomeHealth. The sky is the limit!
