Health New England is committed to promoting community wellness, with a special focus on underserved and vulnerable children and families. And so, throughout the year, we sponsor many important programs and events in the community. Some upcoming events that Health New England is sponsoring include the following:
The Springfield Boys & Girls Club’s 16th Annual Festival of Trees

Tower Square, 1500 Main Street, Springfield
Trees are donated and decorated by businesses, civic and social organizations, schools, hospitals, families and individuals and then are raffled off at the conclusion of the event.

All proceeds of the event will help the Springfield Boys & Girls Club’s continue its 124 years of charitable work by providing children in the community with hope, opportunity and a safe place to learn and grow.
