Attendees can benefit from free lab testing, mammograms, blood pressure screening, and sports physicals. Participating healthcare partners include Medical City Healthcare, Baylor Scott & White Health, Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Plano, and Children's Health. Additionally, the Credit Union of Texas food truck will provide free food at the family-friendly event, featuring bounce houses, face painting, and activities for children of all ages. Participants will also receive summer camp discounts and be entered into a raffle for a complimentary Plano Parks & Recreation Summer membership.

"We are excited to offer this free community health event to those in Collin County. Access to healthcare should not be dependent on one's zip code or resources. “Our goal is to make healthcare accessible for everyone," said Billy Whitson, Leadership Plano Committee Chair.

We extend our gratitude to our partners Credit Union of Texas, Medical City Healthcare, Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital of Plano, Baylor Scott and White, Children's Health, and our volunteers for their invaluable support in making this event possible.
