BayCoast Bank sponsoring free HealthFirst Block Party Palooza featuring games, prizes, entertainment, filled backpack giveaway

Fall River, MA — HealthFirst Family Care Center has announced its 3rd Annual Block Party Palooza, taking place on Saturday, August 2, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. outside the HealthFirst location at 387 Quarry Street, Fall River. This free, family-friendly event is a celebration of community, health, and fun—bringing together local families, organizations, and businesses to kick off National Health Center Week in a meaningful and joyful way.

Guests can look forward to:

• Games and prizes for all ages
• Face painting, live music, and dancing
• A free bike raffle
• Fresh fruits, veggies, and snacks
• Giveaways from community partners
• And more surprises throughout the morning!

One of the day’s highlights will be the back-to-school backpack giveaway: the first 500 school-aged children in attendance will receive a free backpack filled with school supplies (while supplies last—child must be present).

HealthFirst is proud to partner with and thank this year’s sponsors: BayCoast Bank, Tufts Health Plan, Bristol County Savings Bank, and Standard Pharmacy—whose generous support helps make this event possible.

“We’re thrilled to once again bring our community together to celebrate health, wellness, and the power of connection,” said Dr. Lisa Jones, CEO of HealthFirst. “This event is about more than just fun—it’s about showing families that we’re here to support them every step of the way.”
