Thursday, February 16th, 2012

HCH ensures similar services statewide through grants and technical assistance to partner agencies in the City of Frederick and Montgomery, Harford, and Baltimore Counties.

We Treat Feet Podiatry in the Community

Tuesday, January 24th, 2012

Over the last several months, the doctors and staff at We Treat Feet Podiatry in Maryland gave back to the community in several ways. These included:

1. In the spirit of community support, we have been asking patients for a contribution for paper feet to decorate the walls of our four offices. We would like to thank everyone for their overwhelming support of this great cause!

2. The Night of Peace Family Shelter asked We Treat Feet to purchase air mattresses for their guests to sleep on. That’s what we did! We Treat Feet bought enough air mattresses to keep The Night of Peace Family Shelter fully stocked!

3. We Treat Feet partnered with Dr. Comfort Shoes to secure over 200 pairs of donated shoes over the Holiday Season. Some of our donations partners included Hannah More Shelter, Night of Peace Family Shelter and Healthcare for the Homeless.

4. While many individuals, families, and organizations adopt a family over the holidays, We Treat Feet wanted to do more. So we adopted an entire shelter!

The staff of We Treat Feet partnered with The Night of Peace Family Shelter on December 6th, 2011 to make guests of the shelter a festive holiday dinner, consisting of fried chicken, spaghetti and meatballs, stuffing, corn and many homemade holiday desserts. We would like to thank Trader Joe’s in Pikesville who donated all of the food! Furthermore, we brought gifts for all the children, as well as shoes for the men and women.
