**The 14th annual Grin & Bear It 5K | 10K | 1/2 Mile Kids Run & NEW! 1/2 Marathon will take place on November 7th at Poverty Point Reservoir in Delhi, Louisiana. We are excited to welcome our community back to the Grin & Bear It Race! Come enjoy this beautiful scenic run.**

Project Pink is the Delhi Hospital & Clinics program that provides No Cost Mammograms & Breast Cancer Screenings to patients who are uninsured. Without assistance, a 3D Mammogram can cost upwards of $500.00, and leaves many individuals unable to receive this life-saving screening. We believe strongly in accessible breast cancer screenings & hope that you will join us, because Early Detection Saves Lives.
