We love giving our team opportunities to strengthen our relationships with each other and with our community of partners by both learning and having fun together. We’ve had several recent enrichment events allowing our staff to grow and celebrate with some of these partners.

From the beautiful venue, to fun and delicious themed holes, as well as the priceless connections that were made both on and off the golf course, our inaugural Fore Rochester Golf Tournament in July was a hole in one!

441 Ministries, and their adjacent New City Cafe, is one of our favorite partnering organizations. Their work in the community fits into four target areas: Economic Development, Affordable Housing, Holistic Health, and Community Cultivation.

Our teams have been connecting behind the scenes to develop a special blend of coffee beans reflective of the diversity of our community and the mission to serve our neighbors.

His Branches is excited to announce our inaugural golf tournament at Ravenwood Golf Club on July 22,2024! Registration is NOW open for golfers, and we have a variety of sponsorship opportunities available. Funds raised during this event will be used to offset costs related to non-reimbursed medical expenses and leveraged for launching an expansion of our clinic to a third location.

It’s been an exciting year at His Branches. We’ve had the opportunity to see more than 600 new patients join our practice since January. We’ve also been able to increasingly diversify our staff and patient population by providing care for Spanish speakers neighbors at both offices. Additionally, our community development efforts have led to a collaboration with neighbors and community agencies by which we’ve created safer and more universally accessible streets around our 19th Ward building. It truly has been a year of creating hope both on a large scale, and through simple yet supportive conversations with our patients each day.

Our team had the privilege of participating in the recent Complete Streets Makeover at the corner of Arnett and Warwick adjacent to our 19th Ward location. On June 10th, leaders, friends, supporters and neighbors came out for a day full of music, food, energy, and hope in executing a project to address key areas of safety concern on our block.

As a “THANK YOU!” for your continued support, we wanted you to be the first to read about the impact we had in our neighborhoods this past year by sharing our Annual Report. Some of our favorite highlights include: 

Heart Disease is regularly recorded as a leading cause of death in Rochester and steals nearly a decade of life on average from City residents. Our clinics are located in the neighborhoods most impacted by untreated or uncontrolled heart health. We’re working to change that. Last week, we held a fundraiser to promote awareness about this serious issue and raised…

ROC the Day is just a week away and we couldn’t be more excited to be a part of the most generous day of the year!

We had the opportunity to interact with thousands of Rochester neighbors at the Halloween at the Market event yesterday! Through games, giveaways and fun costumes, we were able to connect with potential patients and supporters on a personal level all while spreading the word about our services and locations.

This past week, we had two exciting opportunities to share our mission, which were featured within local broadcasts. The first was a visit from U.S. Senator…

In December 2021, our friends at Common Ground Health completed a comprehensive Needs Assessment of the Rochester community. Their findings demonstrate the continued prevalence of the social determinants of health (economic, nutrition, housing, and education barriers) in the life of our health center’s population.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS! Giving Tuesday is November 30th!

On November 20th we hosted our first pediatric vaccination clinic! We were able to vaccinate approximately 30 kids and a few adults (boosters) thanks to a large team of volunteers…

We know you're probably thinking one more email in your inbox isn't good for your health. Us too.
