Scores for Schools Logo To recognize the accomplishments of area high school athletic programs, Riverside Healthcare donated more than $13,000 to 18 high schools across Kankakee, Grundy, Will, and Iroquois counties for their 2023 fall sports seasons.

"Riverside is grateful to be able to support local high schools through our Scores for Schools Program," said Kyle Benoit, Riverside Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, "We are proud to celebrate student-athletes and coaches for their commitment to athletic achievement."
