Our Mission
Your Health, Your Power:
Empowering Our Community, One Check-Up at a Time
Who We Are
Dedicated to advancing health equity, the Minority Health Fair (MHF) continues its mission of bridging healthcare disparities in underserved communities. For more than 23 years, MHF has hosted an annual event that now serves over 600 individuals with free health screenings and access to critical resources.
In 2025, more than 100 passionate volunteers — including members of the Divine 9 — and over 45 vendor partners came together to provide lifesaving care and education at no cost. Their efforts ensure that families across Chattanooga and beyond have access to the quality healthcare services they deserve.
See how your support as a sponsor or vendor can continue to make a lasting difference in our community.
