Mother's Day Tea

||||||||||

On Saturday, May 11, 2019, AHC held it's 2nd annual Mother's Day Tea event. The event saw 60 plus participants come out to enjoy various festivities including estheticians, wellness coaches, photographers, nutritionists, naturopaths, meditation and yoga facilitators. There was childcare provided on site and a clothing swap for the families.

 The purpose of the event is to host a celebratory afternoon that encouraged and empowered the moms to foster interpersonal relationships. We aimed to promote a healthy community and awareness of the holistic services available to assist them in their daily living.

The overall goal of this event was to provide families who face barriers with a variety of holistic self-care services and information in order to practice and promote self-care and the importance of social, mental/emotional and physical health.

A Special Thanks to our Donors and Self-Care Professionals who helped make this event a success!
