TrueCare will host its annual Flourish & Nourish Health Fair and Breast Milk Drive on Saturday, August 9, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the new TrueCare Vista Way Health Campus (3998 Vista Way, Oceanside, CA). This free, family-friendly event celebrates community wellness with a special focus on maternal and children's health. The day will include a variety of exciting activities and supportive services for the whole family. Highlights include a food distribution, a backpack giveaway to help children prepare for the upcoming school year, music from a live DJ, a blood drive in support of the San Diego Blood Bank, free dental screenings with fluoride varnish, and general health screenings. Guests will have the opportunity to tour TrueCare’s new primary care and dental offices, and children can enjoy interactive activities in the “Kid’s Zone” designed to make wellness fun. “Rooted in our mission to provide care within reach, Flourish & Nourish is more than just a health fair,” said Briana Cardoza, Chief Business Development Officer at TrueCare. “This event is thoughtfully designed to break down barriers and bring essential services and resources directly to the community in a welcoming environment where families can feel seen, supported, and celebrated.” In partnership with the University of California Health Milk Bank, the event features a breast milk drive to help ensure medically fragile and premature infants have access to the nourishment they need. Donor breast milk plays a critical role in protecting vulnerable newborns from life-threatening conditions such as Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC). When a mother’s milk is not available or insufficient, pasteurized donor milk is the safest and most effective alternative to support infant survival and development.
