IronKids continues to be active in our community and abroad by donating vitamins to kids fun runs, preschool tricycle races, silent auctions that raise money for hospitals, schools and kids programs as well sending vitamins along on medical missions with STIMMA. 

We are thankful this month to have been a small part of STIMMA's (Short Term Medical Missions Abroad) recent trip to Haiti.  We were able to send over 60,000 Multi vitamins to be handed out to the hundreds of children they treated during their 10 days in Haiti. To be inspired and truly understand what STIMMA does, please take a moment to read their blog and photo essay of their recent experience. You will be as proud of this team as we are.
