DALLAS, TX – November 12, 2024 – U.S. Anesthesia Partners, Inc. (USAP) recently concluded its annual USAP Cares Week, a national week of service where USAP team members volunteered their time and effort to support communities in need. This year’s events spanned 23 different charitable organizations and saw more than 375 USAP employees contribute over 1,000 hours of service. The collective efforts touched the lives of at least 60,000 people in cities across Texas, Florida, Colorado, Nevada, Maryland and Washington.
"We are incredibly proud of our team members who went above and beyond to make a difference in the communities we serve," said Dr. Scott Holliday, USAP Board Chairman. "This year's USAP Cares Week not only highlights our commitment to service but also reflects USAP’s deep-rooted dedication to helping those in need."
The USAP Cares Program, of which USAP Cares Week is a part, underscores USAP’s commitment to the communities its clinicians serve 24/7. Through collective action and local engagement, USAP aims to foster lasting, positive change.
Highlights throughout the week included:
- Partnering with Tango Charities and radio station 96.3 KSCS, USAP sponsored the largest “Feed the City” event at Texas Live in Arlington, Texas. USAP team members from North Texas, together with 3,000 community members, packed over 40,000 meals to help local children suffering from food insecurity.
- In the Houston area, USAP participated in a Day at the Park, partnering with Compassion United to support the homeless in Montgomery County. The team provided 104 to-go lunches and distributed 100 backpacks, duffels, cooling towels and other essentials to those in need. USAP also donated gently used clothing and shoes, along with a financial contribution to further Compassion United’s mission of empowering the under-resourced.
- In Dallas, USAP’s Executive Leadership Team served over 75 meals to guests and their caregivers at The American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge. In addition, USAP hosted a lively game of Bingo with prizes. A powerful reminder of hope and resilience was shared when one guest at the event rang the bell, signifying completed cancer treatment, creating a truly a memorable and uplifting experience for everyone involved.
- In the Orlando area, USAP team members supported families at the Ronald McDonald House with 32 volunteers preparing pre-packaged snack packs, baked goods, travel-sized hygiene kits and notes of encouragement to comfort and care for families experiencing difficult times.
