Chiropractors from the ACA host Giving Back Week in December every year, with the goal of bringing joy to children and easing the burden on families this festive season.
‘Giving Back’ Week is an initiative run by the ACA, which encourages members to give back to people in their community who are in need.
Giving Back Week runs every December and participating chiropractors accept donations on behalf of their nominated charity. This year’s campaign will run from Monday 5 December to Sunday 11 December.
These donations can take the form of new, unwrapped toys, non-perishable food, hygiene products or cash donations.
Donations are then delivered to children and families in the clinic’s local area, who are going through tough times during Christmas.
Check out a list of ACA members who are participating in your state!
