The Advantage Stars Foundation exists to provide social, psychological, and economic resources to the indigent in our communities, at no cost. Each year they host the Facility Fitness Challenge, a friendly competition between healthcare facilities to raise money and awareness. It’s a step challenge in a sports bracket format: each team records their step count at the end of each bracket, with those with the highest cumulative scores advance to compete with other facilities. The big winner, of course, is The Advantage Stars Foundation!
