Food Drive Supports Downtown Health Plaza Patients

Brenn, one of the Brenner Children’s mascots, stands with some of the children who helped bring in food and funds for the pediatric food bank at the Downtown Health Plaza in February.An emergency food drive led by the Friends of Brenner Children’s collected 60 bags of food and $650 in donations for the pediatric food bank at the Downtown Health Plaza (DHP).

The effort, held in February, raised enough food to feed one family for 60 weeks. DHP is a full-service outpatient medical clinic subsidized by Wake Forest Baptist Health. It serves many of Forsyth County’s uninsured and underinsured residents.
