Last Fall, we were honored to have a group of Safeway Foundation members
visit AHS and to present a $5,000 donation. The contribution will go towards
funding our Integrative Medicine services. Since 2008, AHS has been offering
therapies such as acupuncture by physicians with specialized training. We
thank Safeway Foundation for supporting our work.
