Heal Elgin 2018

Part of the CHEF mission is to partner with other organizations to help improve the quality of life for our community. On June 3, 2018, CHEF participated in the 1st Annual HEAL Elgin event, organized by our very own Honorary Director and Senior Advisor Dr. Teri Dallas-Prunskis. Hundreds of local residents received free medical screenings, eye exams and new glasses and dental check-ups, fillings and even a few extractions, nutrition information and much more. The event was so successful that we did it again this year, on June 2, 2019 with the gracious kick-off and vote of confidence offered from Elgin Mayor David Kaptain. Above are just a few of the volunteers who helped make this even run smooth as silk.
