Description
We are excited to share that B Free Wellness will be a beneficiary of the 4th Annual First Responder Appreciation Day hosted by Mid-Cape Home Centers. This annual event brings the Cape Cod community together in support of first responders, a population at elevated risk of depression, anxiety, and suicide due to the physical, mental and emotional stressors they face every day. After the tragic death of Sergeant Sean Gannon in 2018, Mid-Cape Home Centers partnered with the Sean M. Gannon Memorial Fund to host this event, with the goal of raising money and awareness in support of local programs while expressing gratitude for all that first responders do for our communities.
?
Funds from this year’s event, specifically focused on mental health awareness, training, and aid, will support a scholarship at the Sean M. Gannon Memorial Fund and B Free Wellness’s First Responder Program, “Supporting the Frontlines”.
?
This program offers First Responders a welcoming and supportive community— monthly social events, yoga and stress reduction classes, access to wellness coaches and clinicians and services including reiki, massage, acupuncture and more. Our goal is to reduce the fight, flight or freeze response symptoms that can damage the body, mind and spirit. We hope to support our First Responders in healing their trauma, connecting to each other and living a healthier life. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, the B Free First Responder program is provided free of charge.
