Alaska Health Fair, Inc. (AHF) is excited to announce the return of our health fairs and affordable blood tests. The schedule will be published on http://www.alaskahealthfair.org around the first week of January. You are welcome to make your appointment online or walk in at any of our events. Please consider signing up for our electronic newsletter to be notified of important updates, resources, and more.
We hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and are ready to prioritize your health in the new year. This season, we will add new blood tests to our selection of essential screenings: Mercury and Lead.
For those who may not know us, AHF is a non-profit dedicated to promoting health, wellness and early screenings across the state since 1980. Health fairs are free community events that showcase local wellness and safety resources and feature affordable comprehensive blood tests. AHF works with the leading national laboratory used by local hospitals and health care providers to bring you high-quality blood screenings at nonprofit pricing!
Affordable blood tests available at all events
Our Comprehensive Blood Chemistry Screen has 27 panels covering infection, anemia, liver disease, clotting ability, kidney and adrenal function, liver function, bone disease, tissue disease or damage, heart function, liver function, muscle function, coronary heart disease and more, for $45.
Some of our other screenings include Thyroid ($40), Prostate disease ($25), vitamin D ($55), A1C diabetes ($25), blood Typing ($25).
Additional tests and details are on our website, www.alaskahealthfair.org.
Getting involved
We invite all Alaskans to join us once again as volunteers or health educators this coming season. Nonprofits, businesses and other agencies are provided with complimentary exhibitor space to educate on important health and safety topics while fostering community connections.
For individuals seeking volunteer opportunities, we offer a diverse range of medical and non-medical tasks both at the fairs and in our offices. Visit our website and click on Volunteer or Exhibit in the site menu to learn more. Alternatively, contact us for assistance.
By supporting health fairs, you not only contribute to the well-being of local communities, but you also help yourself. Volunteering has been proven to enhance mental health, lower the risk of heart disease, and even extend life expectancy. It’s an excellent opportunity to build social connections and make a positive impact on your community. We have orientation events coming up for prospective volunteers; visit our website for more information.
Here's to a healthy and happy 2025—we hope all your plans and wishes come true this year!
