Rockwall Urgent Care sponsors food drive to support Helping Hands

Athletic physicals discounted with donations to Food Pantry

(Rockwall,TX- August 6, 2015)—Rockwall Urgent Care patients who donate 3 cans of food to the Helping Hands Food Pantry will receive $10 off their athletic physical during the month of August. The reduced price for sports and camp physicals will be only $15, not the usual $25.

Rockwall County Helping Hands has been a mainstay in the Lake Ray Hubbard community for more than 30 years. It has three components that make it so successful: (1) The Assistance and Referral Program aids Rockwall County residents with financial assistance to meet essential needs; (2) The Health Center of Helping Hands provides affordable healthcare to those who are without a medical home or to those seeking a low-cost alternative; and (3) The Centsible Thrift Store and Boutique of Helping Hands sells donated items including clothing, collectibles and furniture. Rockwall County residents support the thrift store through both donations and purchases.

Brittany Coleman, Marketing & PR Specialist for Helping Hands said, “What a supportive community we live in! Rockwall County Helping Hands is grateful for the continued support of and partnership with Rockwall Urgent Care in support of our mission.”

Leslie Wilson, Marketing Director of Rockwall Urgent Care, said, “We’re eager to partner with this wonderful non-profit in our area. Most residents know about the Centsible Thrift Store, but we need to spread the word about all the wonderful things Helping Hands does for Rockwall County residents in need. This food drive is a win-win for Rockwall County residents.”

Students and athletes need to bring the following items with them in order to complete their athletic physical:

  • Physical form from their respective school or school district
  • Corrective eyewear (contacts or glasses), if applicable, for the vision screening
  • Student ID
  • 3 cans of food to donate
