Supporting United Way's Mission to Build a Caring Community

April 5, 2019

Riverside Healthcare recently showed support to United Way's mission to build a caring community by making a $4,000 donation to Harbor House, which provides emergency shelter, education and support on issues relevant to domestic violence in our community.

Riverside's donation combines with other community partner donations to provide funding towards furnishing updates at Harbor House's Kankakee location.
