What a great way to promote and celebrate Bi-National Health Week. Getting the young to participate with boxing and having the community come down to learn more about health care resources.
Especially during these tough times, Hispanics should definitely find out how to get good health care.
Now that Bi-national health week is over, there’s an organization that’s contributing to helping Hispanics. AARP and Cristina Saralegui, the Hispanic talk show host, have teamed up together to help out the older Hispanic community and help spread the word about AARP’s benefits.
