✨Step Up for a Cause: Advance ER Partners with Soles4Soul November 2025
At Advance ER, giving back to our community is at the heart of what we do. This month, we’re proud to partner with Soles4Souls — a global nonprofit that turns unwanted shoes and clothing into opportunity by keeping them out of landfills and helping those in need. 

Starting in November, donation boxes will be available at both Advance ER locations — Park Cities and Galleria — where patients, staff, and community members can drop off new or gently used shoes.

Every pair collected helps provide relief, create jobs, and empower families both locally and around the world.

“At Advance ER, we believe caring for our community extends far beyond our walls. Our partnership with Soles4Souls allows us to step forward together — giving comfort, dignity, and opportunity to those who need it most.”  said Dr. Thomas Allen, Senior Managing Partner at Advance ER.

🎁Holiday Giving: Advance ER Partners with Community Partners of Dallas
This holiday season, Advance ER is honored to support Community Partners of Dallas (CPD) and their mission to restore safety, dignity, and comfort to children who have experienced abuse, neglect, or traumatic events.

Across Dallas County, thousands of children enter CPS care every year — many with nothing more than the clothes on their backs. Through CPD’s emergency support programs, caseworkers can quickly provide children with brand-new essentials such as clothing, hygiene items, shoes, toys, school supplies, and backpacks filled with comfort items that help ease the fear of entering an unfamiliar environment.

For a child removed from a dangerous or violent situation, the first few hours can be overwhelming. Having something soft, warm, and theirs can make all the difference.

This year, Advance ER will be donating glow-in-the-dark blankets and pillows to be included in these backpacks. These items aren’t just practical — they offer:

• Comfort during moments of fear and uncertainty
• Warmth when a child has no personal belongings
• A sense of security in new surroundings
• A little magic through the glow-in-the-dark stars, shapes, and patterns that help children feel less alone at night

For many children, this becomes the first stable possession they own during a frightening and uncertain time. By donating glow-in-the-dark blankets and pillows, Advance ER is helping CPD ensure every child receives something warm, comforting, and brand-new — a small but meaningful reminder that they are cared for, valued, and not alone.

Advance ER will also be distributing Change Is Good jars for families to collect spare change throughout the year. These donations support CPD’s programs that provide immediate resources and comfort to children entering CPS care. This holiday contribution represents the heart of Advance ER: showing up when it matters most, not only for our patients, but for the vulnerable children in our community.
