Health Fair 2019

For the Second time CSF Foundation Has brought you a health fair that was geared towards results. As a foundation we have been to multiple health fairs; too many to count. As always, we encountered one problem. We questioned ourselves, why was there not a follow up with the guest that attended these health fairs? How sure are we they have been able to find a solution to their medical need?  

It is when we started to realize while informative health fairs are necessary and important, we as CSF, with the network we have could create a health fair that will not only provide information but also results! 

This health fair is an event in which you can bring you family, your insured and uninsured friends. Everyone will be able to receive these exams for free.

We are very ecstatic to present the results of our annual health fair where we received more than 1,200 individuals that were able to benefit not only from information about health and wellness issues but also from having specialists on-site providing medical advice to all those with medical conditions. Preventive health tests were also performed such as:

Gallbladder/thyroid/abdomen ultrasounds

Mammograms

Bone density

Pulmonary function

STD exams

Ultrasound of eyes

Eye exams

Cholesterol and diabetes tests

ABI’S and many more…

Our goal is to get people involved in adopting healthy behaviors and reduce the risk factors of developing chronic diseases.

Thanks to our sponsors and donations from participants in this fair, CSF Medical Non-Profit Foundation managed to raise funds to perform imaging and diagnostic tests, and appointments with specialists for those with a medical condition that requires treatment.

Detections: 73 mammograms performed, 31 people gave (+), 4 people needed breast biopsy and 1 resulted in cancer (39-year-old woman).
