500 fist Bumps

Join us for an info session

The Power of Connection and Wellbeing

How often have we wanted to thank, encourage, or support someone – but got busy or forgot? Our intentions were good, but the moment passed. Join us for one of Healthy UNCG’s most important wellness efforts, bringing the power of connection to the center of the UNCG community.

How it works

It’s simple:

It’s an easy way to show gratitude, support, or just let someone know, “I see you – you belong here.”
