The Fountain Hills Community Health Fair is an annual event with free admission for residents. Area healthcare professionals and nonprofit organizations provide information about their services on topics ranging from primary medical care, physical therapy, and nutrition, to mental health advocacy, crisis response, and end-of-life planning
The event also includes free presentations from healthcare professionals and onsite health services, including Mobile Onsite Mammography (MOM) and the opportunity to donate blood.
The fourth annual health fair is scheduled for Saturday, February 24, 2026. Sponsors pay a fee to participate, which offsets related costs. A portion of the profits from the event are used to fund a Community Emergency Medical Fund within the Four Peaks Rotary Foundation to help pay emergency medical needs for residents experiencing financial difficulties.
In 2024, this fund was used to purchase eye exams and eyeglasses for underserved pre-school students, emergency room costs for a middle-school student who collapsed at school, and fund lunch accounts for 10 families struggling to pay.
Four Peaks Rotarians provide volunteers to help with setup and take down, welcome booth, serve food, manage giveaways, and introduce speakers. Debbie Clason, Four Peaks Rotarian and owner of Clason Communications, facilitates this event and is compensated for her work.
