Milwaukee, Wis. — Hayat Pharmacy will celebrate the opening of its Walker Square location on Thursday, Aug. 20, with a community wellness event highlighting expanded access to pharmacy services and health care resources on Milwaukee’s Near South Side. The event will bring together neighbors, community leaders and local partners while helping residents prepare for the back-to-school season and fall vaccine season.
The celebration will begin with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at approximately 10:15 a.m. Media interview opportunities with Hayat Pharmacy leadership and participating elected officials will be available from 9:45 to 10:45 a.m. The community wellness event will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Hayat Pharmacy, 1238 S. 16th St.
The event will include free health screenings, pharmacy wellness consultations and back-to-school and seasonal wellness supply kits for children, while supplies last. Families will also receive seasonal wellness education, including information about preventive care and recommended vaccinations, including flu vaccines.
“Opening our newest location in Walker Square is about more than providing pharmacy services — it’s about being a trusted health care partner and neighbor for the people who call this community home,” said Hashim Zaibak, founder and CEO of Hayat Pharmacy. “We are proud to continue investing in Milwaukee’s South Side and expanding access to the personalized, compassionate care our patients rely on.”
The ribbon-cutting ceremony will celebrate the opening of Hayat Pharmacy’s 17th location, with participation from community members, partners and local leaders.
