With life expectancies nearly 15 years below other neighborhoods in Louisville, Smoketown Family Wellness Center has a dream that every child will grow up healthy, living up to their potential regardless where they live.
This has been an exciting year with the addition of two new pediatricians and our new Managing Director! Insurances and Medicaid pay for traditional medical services and we rely on donations to provide wrap around services to improve overall wellbeing.
Give for Good is our vital annual fundraiser to cover this gap. By giving today, your donation goes even further thanks to special financial incentives and prizes offered throughout the day. Please donate today and join our mission to improve children's wellbeing!
