Join us for the 2025 Black Men's Wellness Day in Philadelphia, a transformative event dedicated to the health and empowerment of Black men and their families. This year's event will take place on June 7th from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Temple University's Aramark Student Training and Recreation (STAR) Complex

Black Men's Wellness Day isn't just an event - it's a movement. It's about understanding the health disparities that exist, taking actionable steps towards better health, and celebrating the strength and resilience of our community. We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help us make this day the most fun you can have at a doctor's appointment!

Volunteers will assist with a variety of activities, including free health screenings, fitness activities, and educational workshops. The event will feature a Kids Zone with interactive and educational activities centered around health and wellness, ensuring a fun day for the entire family. Additionally, there will be a Senior Pavilion with activities tailored for our Golden citizens, live music, and performances to keep the energy high throughout the day

By volunteering, you will be part of a supportive community network that includes healthcare professionals, community partners, and vendors. Your efforts will help provide vital health services such as blood pressure checks, diabetes screenings, and more, all at no cost to attendees. This is an excellent opportunity to give back to the community, promote health equity, and ensure a brighter, healthier future for all

Come and be a part of this incredible day filled with knowledge, celebration, and unity. Let's champion the cause of health equity together!

For more information and to sign up as a volunteer, please visit our event page or contact us directly. We look forward to seeing you there!
