PMH Development Director, Kimberly Colebank, announced today that the Total Life Commitment Health and Wellness Program received $1,000 in funding from The Bernard McDonough Foundation, Inc., located in Parkersburg, WV. The TLC Program is a hospital initiative open to the community to promote a healthy lifestyle through weight management, exercise, cooking demonstrations, and goal setting. TLC meets each Monday at Noon and 5pm in the 3rd floor conference room at the hospital. To join, contact Allan Livengood at (304) 329-1400. According to Livengood, “The funds will be used to purchase incentives and rewards for members who meet certain goals in the program. We will also use the money to fund our cooking demonstrations that teach members about healthy eating.”
TLC Health and Wellness memberships are only $5.00/week. After 3 consecutive attendances, the 4th week is FREE! After 6 months of Faithful Attendance, members are eligible to become TLC Champions with special gifts and rewards.
