The Living Well Foundation---a non-profit organization announces the opening of the Living Well Village. The Living Well Village houses Health camps and Wellness programs designed for individuals, families and organizations throughout the life cycle.
The mission of the Living Well Foundation is to create healthier individuals/ families through experiential learning.
Wellness is a process in which individuals become aware of their choices and subsequent consequences to these actions. The Living Well Village assists individuals in reaching their highest level of wellness through education with practice. A fulfilling life is a balance between the mind, body, spirit and sense of purpose---all of which are interrelated. The mission of the Living Well Village is to help individuals and families choose healthy lifestyles that will improve their quantity as well as their quality of life. It must be a conscious decision in “choosing to live life well”.

***The Living Well Village is operated by the Living Well Foundation, a not-for-profit organization as defined by section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Tax-exempt organizations do not pay income, sales or property tax. To view Annual Report (click here).
But not-for-profit does not mean an organization can survive with a negative cash flow. A positive income and cash flow needs to be generated in order to further our mission of creating healthier individuals/family units through experiential learning, Our commitment to health education and the empowerment of people to take personal responsibility for their wellness is what sets our organization apart from the rest. Although health screenings are important to stop a disease process, it is our belief that disease prevention begins in childhood. It is our goal that every individual will "know better so that they can do better". Your support in creating a positive cash flow will allow us to reinvest in the Living Well Village and improve the programs for the communities we serve.
