Prioritize your well-being and achieve a personal milestone while supporting a cause close to your heart.
Training for and completing a fitness challenge is rewarding, especially when fundraising for your favorite cause. South Shore Health is offering a Virtual Training Experience that helps you achieve a personal fitness or endurance milestone while supporting a program or cause close to your heart.
