With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, why not declare your eternal love on a brick on the Patti and Allan Herbert Wellness Center’s Love Bridge? Join the hundreds of UM alumni and friends of the Herbert Wellness Center who have chosen to celebrate that someone special in their lives with a Love Brick.

Not only does a Love Brick publically proclaim your love for someone you cherish, but funds from the bricks help put UM students on the permanent wellness path. The CHAMP (Canes Health Assessment and Motivation Program) Endowment Fund, initiated by Patti and Allan Herbert and supported by funds from the Love Bridge, offers all UM students free fitness assessments each year they’re in school. Students use the information from these assessments to get started or stay on the right health and fitness program to achieve their wellness goals.

The Love Bridge promotes two dimensions of wellness that are key to the mission of the Herbert Wellness Center: emotional wellness for those who receive a brick and physical wellness for UM students who take advantage of CHAMP. In other words, a Love Brick is the perfect Valentine’s Day gift.

To purchase your brick, fill out the Love Bridge brochure. For more information, contact Carmen Gilbert at 305-284-8512 or visit the Herbert Wellness Center’s website.
