at the Portland Art Museum, Marks Building
Prospera means to thrive, to flourish, to prosper. It reflects what we want for every patient, every family, and our entire community. Because thriving is not something we do alone. It is something we build together.
We all need health care. And when one of us cannot get it, that is all of ours to carry—and all of ours to fix.
Join us for an inspiring evening of connection, celebration, and collective impact as our community comes together in support of Virginia Garcia Memorial Health Center. Through stories of resilience, hope, and partnership, we will honor what is possible when we show up for one another and invest together in a future where every person has the opportunity to stay connected to the care they need to thrive.
We can’t wait to see you there.
