At OB-GYN ASSOCIATES, INC. we are committed to giving back to the community. Each month an individual volunteers their time as Team Leader and selects a charity of their choice. The Team Leader and staff members join together to raise money or goods for the chosen charity. Weekly raffles and monetary donations to participate in "Dress Down Fridays" allow us to realize our goal of helping others. This rewarding ongoing endeavor was established in 2005. Listed below are our accomplishments over the past year.
