SHARE Foundation

SHARE Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) not for profit public charity. Our mission is to identify, develop and foster programs and services that further the health and well being of the people of our community and surrounding areas. Our mission is achieved through seven outstanding programs: PRIDE Youth Programs is a state wide organization with a model program that deals with the very real dangers that children deal with everyday such as pressure to experiment with tobacco, alcohol, and other drugs. PRIDE strengthens their ability to resist these temptations. Interfaith Clinic provides high quality health and dental care to uninsured and underinsured patients in Union County that would otherwise be forced to seek medical attention in area emergency rooms. Life Touch Hospice helps the terminally ill accept death as a normal part of living. The caring staff and volunteers of the John R. Williams Hospice House and Life Touch Hospice home-care program strive to take away the fear of the unknown by educating patients and their families through the process. Chaplaincy Services provides pastoral care and supportive ministry on a referral basis to patients and their families. For many our pastoral care represents a source of strength and illumination at a time that could otherwise be dark and unstable. HealthWorks Fitness Center is an invigorating world-class exercise facility offered at a reasonable rate for individual and family memberships. From losing weight to staying young, our members have learned that HealthWorks adds life to your years. Grantmaking enables other organizations as they strive to improve health and well being. In past, grants, we have supported programs ranging from HIV/AIDS prevention to Arts Education for our children. The SHARE Scholarship program seeks out committed students who are interested in health related and public education careers. The program also helps replenish our supply of medical personnel in Union County.
