The mission of SevenDays® is to provide opportunities encouraging all people to increase kindness through knowledge, mindset and behaviors; it is the annual experience of the Faith Always Wins Foundation, promoting dialogue for the betterment of our world through kindness, faith and healing. Through SevenDays® Make a Ripple, Change the World you will be engaged, enriched and enlightened.
“We are happy to partner with Community Blood Center and educate the community on the reasons donating blood can positively affect so many people directly in our community,” said Mindy Corporon, founder and president of the Faith Always Wins Foundation.
