NKF Connecticut was thrilled to support Community Give Back Day! The event took place on Saturday, August 15th and was a free event open to all. There was a total attendance of 790 people!

✴Our two volunteers from Quinnipiac University PA program; Katherine Olsen and Brittany Wilder were with us offering blood pressure checks for adults.
