The Colorado Health Foundation continues grant to support Colorado Health Service Corps
The Colorado Rural Health Center would like to thank the Colorado Health Foundation for its continued support of the Colorado Health Service Corps and our participation in the loan repayment process. Colorado Health Service Corps is a state, federal, and private partnership that seeks to improve access to healthcare professionals in underserved Colorado communities by repaying the educational loans of providers who agree to practice in areas with a health professional shortage. The Foundation is a longtime supporter to the Colorado Rural Health Center and we value their partnership in addressing the healthcare needs of rural Colorado.
Community partners donate to CRHC’s fitness challenge.
The 2013, CRHC winter fitness challenge has come to an end. The challenge consisted of CRHC staff getting active, eating right and becoming more health conscious. Points were assigned to various physical activities and healthy living habits over a six week period. Activities included running, skiing, stair climbing, drinking 64 ounces of water and eating the suggested daily amount of fruits and vegetables. At the end of the six week period we celebrated with a healthy potluck and recognition of those who participated. Everyone who participated received a prize which was donated from various Colorado community members. The Wellness Committee would like to thank all of our generous donors that helped keep everyone motivated throughout the six week challenge! Our donors included Simply Magical Massage, History Colorado, Denver Botanical Gardens, Landmark Theaters, Whole Foods, Arthur Murray Dance Studio, Royal Gorge, Denver Center for the Performing Arts, Denver Art Museum and Denver Zoo! We appreciate the support from our community and the active staff that participated!
