Spirit of giving

Lions team up with Stop and Shop to help Wood River Health Services

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, the Chariho Centennial Lions Club recently donated Stop & Shop gift cards to Wood River Health Services to be distributed to families and individuals in need during the holiday season.

The club donation was matched by Richmond Stop & Shop.

Michael Lichtenstein Pres. & CEO and Director of Quality Improvement Lynda Green (r) received the c-cards from Lions members Teresa Ellis and Doreen Chin Pratt.

Wood River Health Services is the Federally Qualified Community Health Center for southwestern Rhode Island, providing medical and dental care and social services to over 9,000 area residents.

The center also administers the area WIC (Women, Infants and Children) Nutrition Program, provides a nationally recognized chronic disease management program, has available on site lab testing in cooperation with Westerly Hospital, including blood work, x-ray and mammography, and provides behavioral and mental health counseling and referrals.

Sliding scale payments are available to those who qualify.


Wood River Health Services is located at 823 Main St., Hope Valley (on Route 3 south of the village, just off Route I-95 at Exit 2).
