Community Outreach and Charity

Community Outreach and Charity

Together We Serve Our Communities - Along with our housing mission, we strive to be a force for good in our communities. Each year, the Next Door Programs® team members and our partners, enjoyed donating over 2,000 hours of community service. These projects include the Next Door Programs® SOS Drive, autism fund raisers and meals for the homeless, along with volunteering for other school and community events. We are also proud to partner with United Way in their Student Reading Mentor Program, and many other projects throughout the year.

We were excited to participate in this year’s Hollis Cancer Center Promise Run! The run was organized by Lakeland Regional Health, and had over 1,200 participants, volunteers, and spectators who joined us in the race against cancer!

The Promise Run is inspired by people who believe that a community can come together to conquer cancer. It’s a celebration of the lives of loved ones touched by cancer and a Promise to strengthen the health of everyone around us.

Nurse Next Door© was pleased to sponsor the LRH Weight Loss Clinic Team (Weigh to Go Team), as well as volunteer at the event. What a fun day, for a great cause! Special shout-out to Joshua Farrell, Scottie Kautz, Paige Singletary, Sharon Parks, and all the other participants and volunteers in this year’s event!
