CharityRx Founder’s Day of Service: Hopeless to Hopeful

CharityRx Founder's Day of Service graphic

Every September, a special day brings reflection and action—our CharityRx Founder’s Day of Service. Set for September 28, 2024, this year’s celebration continues our theme of “Hopeless to Hopeful,” focusing on giving back to those who dedicate their lives to serving our country. Inspired by our founder, Eric Beaumont, who launched CharityRx in September 2019, we will use this day to honor military service members and their families this year. Join us as we partner with the USO to host a Military Appreciation Movie Party in Las Vegas, bringing an evening of joy to soldiers and their loved ones.

A Tribute to Our Heroes

Military families make sacrifices daily, often facing challenges that seem unending. These challenges range from frequent relocations and long deployments to the emotional strain of separation. Recent statistics reveal that about 37% of military spouses are unemployed or underemployed, mainly due to the challenges of continuous relocations. Additionally, nearly 30% of military families experience food insecurity, highlighting the financial struggles they face. By acknowledging these hurdles, we can better understand the importance of supporting and showing appreciation.

Our Military Appreciation Movie Party aims to offer a respite from these challenges, allowing service members and their families to relax and enjoy a well-deserved break. It’s a simple gesture, yet one filled with gratitude and acknowledgment of their unwavering dedication.

The Significance of Founder’s Day

CharityRx believes in the power of community and the profound impact of giving back. Founder’s Day of Service is a testament to our commitment to creating positive change and supporting those in need. By aligning with our mission to make prescription medications accessible for all and our commitment to serve our communities and make a positive difference in the world, we expand our efforts beyond providing prescription discounts and into the realm of community service.

This year, as we gather in Las Vegas for our Military Appreciation Movie Party, we invite our team, pharmacy staff members, and military families to join us in celebrating this special day. Together, we can transform a moment into a movement, spreading hope and appreciation throughout our communities.

The Power of Giving Back

Giving back not only benefits those in need but also has a positive impact on ourselves. By participating in acts of service, we can:

  • Connect with our community and build meaningful relationships.
  • Gain a sense of purpose and fulfillment by making a difference in the lives of others.
  • Develop new skills and experiences through volunteering.
  • Foster gratitude and empathy towards others.
  • Create positive change and inspire others to do the same.
