What a night! 💜

Friends of CareNet brought together some of the people who make our work, and our community, so special.

We shared stories, celebrated impact, caught up with familiar faces, and welcomed new friends. Most importantly, we were reminded that CareNet’s work is powered by people who genuinely care about their neighbors.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and continues to stand alongside CareNet. We loved spending the evening with you!

Mark your calendars for this year's Tent City - October 16 -18th. Donations are being collected now for distribution at the event.

Have you ever heard about the 1Matters, Toledo event that connects people in our community with much needed resources? Medical, Dental, Haircuts, Food, Fellowship and CLOTHING

Tent City 2026 is right around the corner - October 16th - 18th and we have started preparing for this year's event. One of the many things that our community is in need of is clothing - specifically winter clothing - and I know - it's a million degrees outside right now - but before we know Old Man Winter will be knocking on our door and that means our friends who are living on the streets are going to need warm clothes to help protect them. We are accepting donations at 3450 W. Central Ave, Ste 220 - Tuesdays/Wednesdays/Thursdays from 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM.

Those also happen to be the times that we could use some volunteers to help sort and fold the donations we receive!

Let us know if you have any questions - we'd love to have you join us!

A new job or pay raise should move you forward, not leave you worrying about losing the benefits your family depends on.

Our community partner, the Lucas County Benefit Bridge Program, helps eligible individuals and families navigate the transition from public benefits to greater financial stability, so you can take the next step with confidence.

Don't let the fear of losing benefits hold you back from new opportunities. Learn how the Benefit Bridge Program can help you build a stronger financial future.
