Help RGV to host first free community health screening event Friday in Harlingen
Harlingen, TX (KRGV) — Help RGV will hold its first community health screening event as the nonprofit expands into health services.
The event starts at 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13, at the Help RGV warehouse on Alta Palmas Drive in Harlingen. It is open to everyone, and no registration is required.
Free services will include blood work, plus diabetes, cognitive, depression and anxiety screenings. Culture of Life Ministries is providing the health services.
“To give back and do a screening, I think there's so much need out there. A lot of people without health care are struggling right now, so we just want to be able to help, you know, those that are not able to go to the doctor and get checked,” Help RGV member Karla Perez said.
