NW Ohio CareNet

06/04/2026

In just one week, CareNet will come together for our Day of Giving, a special opportunity to provide hope, support, and care to individuals in our community.
This year, we are excited to share incredible news:

Thanks to a generous donor partnership from the Andersons Foundation, New Donor gift on our Day of Giving will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000.

That means new community support can go twice as far to help provide:
• Compassionate client care
• Education and support to consumers in Lucas county who are looking to access health insurance
• Essential Health and wellness items for families in need

Every conversation, every appointment, and every family served is possible because of supporters like you.

We invite you to mark your calendar for June 11 and consider making a gift that day, and spread the word to others to help us unlock the full $5,000 match.
If you would like to show your support for CareNet now, please visit https://secure.qgiv.com/for/dogivin2 to donate!

Apply online through the Ohio Department of Aging; applications close on May 22nd, at 6 p.m.
Unfortunately, the AOoA will not be able to take any applications over the phone or walk-ins, as there are no paper applications.
If you're 60 or older and meet income guidelines, you can receive $50 to spend on fresh, locally grown fruits, veggies, herbs, and even unprocessed honey. It’s a great way to eat well and support our local farmers!
