Heart 2 Heart

At Westside Family Health Center we believe in cultivating a spirit of philanthropy among WFHC employees.

In 2005, WFHC employees established the clinic-wide “Heart 2 Heart” community charitable giving program. WFHC staff, moved by the tragic news of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, wanted to do something to help. In the weeks following the storms they went through their closets and hit the stores, donating more than a half ton of items including clothing, toiletries, toys, school and office supplies to six community health clinics in Louisiana as well as the Louisiana Primary Care Association.

In early 2006 WFHC staff and the board of directors donated more than 260 pounds of food to the Westside Food Bank in Santa Monica as part of “Heart 2 Heart.”

Our February 2008 Heart 2 Heart campaign was a huge success. Thanks to everyone who donated food for Westside Food Bank and books for Friends of Santa Monica Public Library.

WFHC staff and Friends of WFHC donated nearly 700 books to our Heart 2 Heart Spring 2008 campaign.
