Arizona’s healthcare & dental communities collected 28,252 pounds of food this summer as part of the 4th annual Healthcare Fights Hunger (HFH) drive to help community food banks feed the hungry. A total of 42 Arizona hospitals & medical office practices participated in HFH 2007 for the month of June.
The food drive highlights the fact that nearly 800,000 Arizona residents are at risk for poor health because they don’t regularly get enough to eat. HFH gives healthcare professionals the opportunity to help alleviate hunger & improve the health of their individual communities.
