2020 Feed the Hungry Event at the Judeo-Christian Outreach Center in Virginia Beach
Arthritis Consultants of Tidewater (ACT) hosted their annual “Feed the Hungry” event on Sunday, May 31…however, it was done just slightly different this year!
While wearing masks and respecting the COVID social distancing requirements we met at the office and set up multiple stations to make and assemble 92 sandwich sacks (sandwich, fruit, drink, dessert, chips, etc.) to be delivered and distributed at the JUDEO-CHRISTIAN OUTREACH CENTER (JCOC) in Virginia Beach. Physicians, staff, and family all gathered together to give back to the community.

Team ACT Now! joined hundreds of other supporters from Hampton Roads on June 9, 2018, to stand together as a powerful voice against lupus. Team ACT Now! was successful in raising over $500. Proceeds from the event are used to improve the quality of life for local people affected by Lupus.

Girl Scout Troop 191 visits Arthritis Consultants of Tidewater
January 18, 2019. Girl Scouts Troop 191 was in the house…the Arthritis Consultants of Tidewater (ACT) House!
The girls enjoyed learning all about the usefulness of X-rays in medicine from our own Dr. Sherwood. Then, Alyx our sonographer then showed them all about the exciting world of ultrasound.
ACT is glad to be part of building the next generation of strong women!
P.S. thanks Anya for setting up this fun event, and thanks girls…we enjoyed our beautiful thank you card and homemade brownies.
