Lourdes Medical Associates, Lourdes Center for Public Health and Lourdes Health Foundation recently held a health and family-fun event at the Osborn Family Health Center, which offers primary and specialty care services to residents of Camden City and surrounding municipalities -- many of which lack sufficient health care.

Over 200 people attended the fair and more than 15 Lourdes and local organizations such as the Lourdes Wellness Center, Lourdes Stroke Services, the Boys & Girls Club of Camden County, the American Association for Cancer Research and the Southern New Jersey Perinatal Cooperative were present to connect local residents with health education and community services. Topics represented included diabetes education, cancer awareness, stroke information, infant/prenatal education, literacy promotion and youth enrichment opportunities.

Patrons of every age enjoyed prizes, face painting and free food provided by Lourdes' Food and Nutrition Department and the Philly Pretzel Factory, who generously donated 300 soft pretzels for the event.
