Blue Ridge Healthy Families Receives Grant

The WNC Bridge Foundation has awarded $4000 to Blue Ridge Healthy Families. The funds will be used to provide essential items such as diapers, wipes, formula, bottles, baby food, cleaning supplies and personal hygiene products for families enrolled in the agency’s intensive home visiting program.  These are families that have limited funds and have been further impacted by the pandemic. Blue Ridge Healthy Families is an affiliate of the national Healthy Families America program that supports parents in ensuring healthy childhood outcomes for their children. The organization serves families in Mitchell, Yancey and Avery counties.  For more information go to brhealthyfamilies.org.
