What an incredible time at Via Health Partners’ Soup on Sunday in Charlotte! 🥣💛

We were honored to be part of such a meaningful annual fundraiser — and we had an absolute blast handing out our sample-filled donuts (which were definitely a crowd favorite 😉🍩).

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, grabbed a donut, and supported an amazing cause. Charlotte always shows up in the best way.

We’re grateful to partner with organizations like Via Health Partners that make such a big impact in our community. 💛

Some moments are hard to put into words. Watching children honor their loved ones, support one another, and find healing together is one of them. 💛

At Chameleon’s Journey, grief is met with compassion, connection, and community. This powerful reflection shares how camp creates space for children and teens to remember, heal, and discover they are not alone.

If you’ve ever wanted to give back in a meaningful way, this is a beautiful place to begin.

For the last 26 years, a children’s grief camp has taken place at Camp Thunderbird on Lake Wylie, SC. The kids find peers going through similar issues and not only learn coping techniques (music therapy, expressive arts, peer support) but have fun and connect with each other through archery, ropes...

"As a primary care provider, I have the privilege of caring for patients across many stages of life, and one topic that consistently rises to the top is cardiovascular health. Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States, yet much of it is preventable through everyday choices and proactive medical care. This message is especially important in February, which is recognized nationally as American Heart Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness, education, and prevention of heart disease."

Read the full article by our very own Dr. Michelle Schmerge. Dr. Michelle Schmerge founded Equity Health, a VIA Health Partners company, to make exceptional healthcare accessible to everyone, everywhere. Together with her team of clinicians and coordinators, she offers primary care, care navigation, and advanced care planning. Learn more at www.equityhealthcares.com.

Michelle was asked to write another health-aware article for Lake Norman Woman Magazine!

What's better for February (American Heart Month!) than insight into cardiovascular health - because it's not just about avoiding heart attacks or strokes. Maintaining healthy blood vessels, optimal blood pressure, balanced cholesterol levels, and steady blood sugar over time is fundamental to feeling your best, maintaining your energy, and supporting overall well-being at every stage of life.

🎶 When words fall short, music can speak.

At Chameleon’s Journey, music therapy gives grieving children and teens a safe way to express emotions they may not yet have the words for. Through drumming, songwriting, and creative expression, campers discover they are not alone - and that their feelings are welcome here.

Read how music therapy helps campers process grief in meaningful ways and supports healing through connection and creativity. 💛

Read our latest blog post by our very own Marley Holliday-Henry here: www.chameleonsjourney.org/post/music-therapy-helps-to-process-grief

Each child at camp is experiencing the loss of a loved one, meaning they carry grief with them every day. Music therapy gives these campers the opportunity to express their emotions without needing to put words to how they feel in the moment. I love incorporating drumming interventions, which allow....
