Stay Connected to your Community

Blk + Healthy is excited to share the Blk + Healthy Calendar and Community Directory!

Here you can access majority Black-owned businesses, organizations, professionals, creatives and events that enhance your wellness in Upstate,SC.  

We ask that you share with your family and friends to make this your hub for all things Health and Wellness resources. 

More than ever there is uncertainty of how severe Black communities will be impacted during these times. 

We are at the highest risk for health complications, lack of treatments, lack of education and capacity to sustain our Black-owned businesses.

We also carry a spirit of joy, tenacity, grit and of love. So we will continue to follow the call of purpose to support our community by finding and creating solutions to continue the evolution, health and wellness of our people.
