Celebrate National Rural Health Day with NRHA


Rural communities are wonderful places to live and work, which is why nearly 62 million people – nearly one in five Americans – call rural home. 

This Thursday, November 16th, we celebrate National Rural Health Day, a date set aside to honor the selfless, community-minded, ‘can do’ spirit that prevails in rural America.

Across the US, several national organizations and local community groups will celebrate this special day in multiple ways. The National Organization of State Offices of Rural Health has a listing of the many activities.

What can you do? I hope you will join me today in giving to NRHA’s Rural Health Foundation, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization created to help develop the future leaders of rural health.

NRHA’s Foundation is a permanent endowment to support programs that identify emerging rural leaders and provides them with resources to play a lead role in our future.

A small donation today can help us all ensure a bright rural tomorrow, so donate here today!
