Essentia Health Supports Safe Haven This Holiday Season

Kudos to our colleagues at Duluth's Business Service Center (BSC) for organizing a holiday wish list drive to support Safe Haven!

Safe Haven Shelter and Resource Center in Duluth provides vital services to women, children, and all survivors affected by physical, emotional, sexual, and economic abuse.

Your generosity made significant impact on the lives of community members in need this holiday season!

Spreading Holiday Cheer: Essentia Health - Moose Lake Hosts Parade of Lights Celebration

Essentia Health - Moose Lake brought holiday cheer to the community with the Parade of Lights event, spreading joy to all ages. Santa made a grand entrance Saturday morning, taking time to share Christmas wishes and join in a fun coloring contest.

The festivities continued with a free community movie at the historic theater, followed by the Parade of Lights, making stops to greet those eager to see Santa.

A big thank you to all the volunteers and participants who made this cherished community event possible!
