“What we try and do is to select organizations that are presenting programs and services to individuals of all ages. That is trying to help people maintain their health and fitness. We also work with chronic disease education,” said Pam Christensen, Foundation Manager for Western Marquette County Health Foundation.

They encourage organizations that provide services and programs for folks who live in the West end to apply.
