beCharitable
beWell Organic Medicine, Inc. is committed to making a positive impact on our local communities. This is why we created our beCharitable program. Every month a local organization will be selected to be our partner for this initiative. Spare change and cash will be collected in green collection boxes at each register in our beWell Merrimac Medical Dispensary. At the end of the month, the money will be matched by beWell* and donated to that month's organization. Please help us raise money for a great cause the next time you visit!
