Celebrating 25 years!
Family Health Partnership Clinic is proud to present the 25th Annual Care4 Breast Cancer 5K Run/Walk on Sunday, October 19th at Woodstock North High School!
The Care4 Breast Cancer 5K celebrates survivors, supports our breast cancer warriors and honors the loved ones we have lost too early. It is an inspiring and moving event that makes a huge impact in our community. The Care4 5K raises critical funds to support Family Health Partnership Clinic in it's mission to provide health care services to the uninsured adults of McHenry County. Specifically, the funds raised are pledged to breast cancer education, early diagnosis & detection, annual screenings and other women's health programs. We know that early detection is key to survival and, with your help, we can give everyone the hope and support they need.
The Care4 will again have a VIRTUAL option! Our Care4 Family extends to all four corners of the country and we want to ensure that everyone is included so we are thrilled to be able to offer a VIRTUAL CARE4 Experience. As a VIRTUAL participant, you can choose the time and place to walk, run or be active from October 12th thru October 19th. Upload your results along with pictures of you and your Care4 Crew wearing your swag. Those signed up for the Virtual Care4 can opt in for shipping and your shirt and bib will be shipped by October 9th.
So together, let’s spread the Care4 message far and wide- making sure that EVERYONE has access to breast cancer screenings and early detection, preventative care and education! Early diagnosis is key to survival and without health insurance, early detection may not happen. Uninsured women were nearly 2.6 times more likely to be diagnosed with a later stage of the disease. With your support, FHPC can change that because, we believe, everyone deserves healthcare!
The Clinic has been providing quality health care to the uninsured men and women of McHenry County since 1996! For more info about FHPC, visit hpclinic.org.
Registration includes Care4 T-shirt (guaranteed size if registered by 10/10, so don't miss out- register today!)

Care4 Impact
Cancer doesn't wait until you have good health insurance coverage or until you can afford to see your doctor. Your support of the Care4 Breast Cancer 5K could be the difference between early diagnosis and complete remission and not detecting a tumor until it is too late.
Where your fundraising dollars go
Family Health Partnership Clinic provides health care to the uninsured men and women of McHenry County. The funds from the Care4 Breast Cancer 5K go into our Women's Health Fund to provide breast cancer screenings, education, diagnostic testing, preventative care and more women's health services.
Our Impact
Our Clinic Cares4 over 2000 patients each year and achieves better outcomes managing chronic illnesses such as diabetes and high blood pressure than those with private insurance or Medicare.
