Good morning, Friends ☀️

Every day, someone in our community is facing a challenge they didn’t plan for, a medical need, a financial setback, or simply trying to figure out where to turn for help.

At CCMC, we are reminded daily that real change happens when a community chooses to care. Through charitable medical care, education, and resource support, we are working to walk alongside individuals and families as they move toward stability and better health.

But this work is bigger than any one organization.

It takes people who are willing to show compassion, to listen, to give their time, and to be part of something greater than themselves.

Today is a good day to make a difference, whether it’s through a kind word, a helping hand, or supporting a cause that serves others.

Together, we are improving life for the under-served and under-resourced in our community.

CCMC provides charitable medical care, medication assistance, education, and resource support for the under-served in our community.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day from all of us at CCMC ☘️

Today is often about luck, but here in our community, we know that lasting change comes from something even more powerful, compassion, support, and people who care about one another.

Every day at CCMC, we see neighbors helping neighbors through charitable medical care, education, and resource support. It’s not luck that makes our community stronger, it’s people choosing to show up, lend a hand, and make a difference.

As you celebrate today, we hope you take a moment to share kindness, offer encouragement, and be a source of hope for someone who may need it.

Together, we are improving life for the under-served and under-resourced in our community.

We are incredibly grateful to Jennifer Horn and the local chapter of Beta Sigma Phi for their thoughtful donation of makeup kits to CCMC.

Pictured here is Starla, our Getting Ahead Coordinator, holding just a portion of the items that will soon be given to our Getting Ahead graduates.

These may seem like small gifts, but they carry a powerful message of dignity, confidence, and the reminder that someone cares. For many of our graduates, these moments of encouragement mean more than words can express.

The Getting Ahead program is about building stability, confidence, and a new path forward. Gestures like this help celebrate the hard work our participants have put in and remind them that their community is standing behind them every step of the way.

Jennifer and Beta Sigma Phi, thank you for your kindness and generosity. These will be put to perfect use, and they will truly make a difference.

For more information about the Getting Ahead program, please contact Starla at 501-318-1153 or sbleifus@ccmc.org

You may think you understand poverty, how it affects our community, and why people struggle to move beyond it. But the reality is that poverty is far more complex than most of us realize.
Join us as we work together to build awareness, strengthen our community, and discover practical ways to disrupt poverty in Hot Springs.

CCMC’s Bridge to Hope Workshop for Community Leaders is designed to help our community gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and barriers many families face every day. Through this workshop, participants will learn about the realities of poverty in our area and explore ways each of us can become part of the solution.

Poverty has been identified as the number one health need issue in our community. This workshop brings together community leaders, nonprofits, educators, healthcare professionals, churches, and concerned citizens who want to better understand poverty and explore practical ways we can work together to disrupt it.

• Challenges and Barriers Faced by Those Living in Poverty

A big thank you to Christ of the Hills United Methodist Church in Hot Springs Village for helping us continue caring for our patients and community.

Through their $1 a Week Grant, they provided funding that allowed us to install new hand sanitizer stations throughout our clinic to help keep both patients and volunteers safe.

We are also incredibly grateful to Bob Beard, one of our wonderful volunteers, who spent time installing the new sanitizer stations throughout the office.

Support from partners like Christ of the Hills UMC and dedicated volunteers like Bob make it possible for us to continue improving life for the under-served and under-resourced in our community.

Thank you for being part of the work we do every day.

What a beautiful, bright spring day in our community. Days like this remind us how fortunate we are to live in a place where neighbors care for one another and where small acts of kindness can make a big difference.

At CCMC, every day we see people come together to support those who need it most — through charitable medical care, education, volunteering, and simply showing compassion for others.

Today is a great reminder that even the smallest gesture can brighten someone’s day. A smile, a helping hand, or a kind word can go farther than we realize.

Let’s take advantage of this beautiful day and look for ways to lift someone up. Together, we continue building a stronger, healthier Hot Springs.

If you would like to be part of our mission, we always welcome volunteers and supporters who want to help us continue serving our community.

Good morning, Hot Springs.

Today we want to recognize something that often goes unnoticed, the people in our community who quietly make life better for others.

The volunteer who gives their time after a long day of work.
The neighbor who checks in on someone living alone.
The teacher, nurse, mechanic, or server who treats people with kindness.
The person who chooses compassion when it would be easier to walk away.

Communities don’t become strong by accident. They become strong because ordinary people decide to care about the people around them.

At CCMC, we are grateful every day for the volunteers, supporters, and partners who help us continue improving life for the under-served and under-resourced in our community.

If you have ever volunteered, donated, shared one of our events, or simply encouraged someone who needed it — thank you. You are part of this mission.

And if you’ve been thinking about getting involved, we would love to have you join us.

Good morning, Hot Springs

A brand-new week is here — a fresh start and another opportunity to make a difference in the lives of the people around us.

At CCMC, every week brings new chances to serve our neighbors through charitable medical care, education, and community support. But building a stronger community doesn’t only happen inside our walls. It happens when each of us chooses kindness, compassion, and action in our daily lives.

As you start this week, take a moment to think about how you can make it count.

Reach out to someone who may need encouragement.
Offer help where you see a need.
Choose patience, kindness, and understanding.

Small actions can create big change — and together we can continue building a healthier, more supportive Hot Springs for everyone.

If you would like to help CCMC continue this mission, we welcome volunteers and supporters who want to be part of the work we’re doing in our community.

Our community is the reason CCMC continues to grow and serve.

Every day we see the impact of people who choose to care, volunteers who give their time, supporters who give financially, and friends who simply share our events and help spread the word. All of those actions matter more than you might realize.

Because of you, patients receive charitable medical care they otherwise could not afford. Families find guidance and resources during difficult times. Individuals gain new tools and hope through our Poverty Disruption programs.

None of this happens alone. It happens because a community decides to stand together.

If you have ever volunteered, donated, attended an event, or shared one of our posts, THANK YOU!! You are part of the reason lives are being changed here in Hot Springs.

If you would like to be part of the mission, there are many ways to help:
• Volunteer your time
• Attend or share our events
• Support the clinic through donations
• Help us spread the word about CCMC

When a community works together, hope grows stronger for everyone.
