FirstHealth will host a Day of Yoga on Saturday, March 15, to benefit the Cancer CARE Fund. The event will be held in the Shadowlawn Room at the Clara McLean House at 20 FirstVillage Drive in Pinehurst from 8 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.
Spearheaded by FirstHealth Fitness yoga instructors, many of whom have been personally touched by cancer, this event offers a sanctuary of hope and healing. While there is no set fee for participation, attendees are encouraged to make a donation to participate. All proceeds will go to The Foundation of FirstHealth Cancer CARE Fund, which provides support for cancer patients through medication assistance, transportation, wigs, prostheses, and other direct patient care needs.
Suggested donations include $15 for a single yoga class, $40 for three, or $75 for all six classes.
