MISSION: Mature Services, Inc. promotes successful aging by
providing the highest quality programs and services to support,
strengthen, and empower adults as they age. Founded in Akron,
Ohio as a senior citizen program, it has since become an
independent, nationally respected organization with offices throughout the state.
Employers and Job Seekers alike, plan to attend our 22nd Mature Workers' Job & Career Fair in Akron on May 17th. This event is the only one of its kind focused on bringing those 40+ together in one place to meet companies seeking to hire older workers. It will be held at the Hilton Akron Fairlawn from 9am - 2pm. Last year, over 30 employers and 800 job seekers attended. Click here for more info and highlights from 2011.
Mark your calendar for the 8th Annual The Melting Pot - A Taste of Many Nations on September 13th. This delectable event features culinary professionals from local restaurants
coming together to celebrate ethnic cuisine. It will be held at St. George Fellowship Centre and begins at 5:30pm. Click here for more information.
In difficult times, it's good to know
we have friends we can count on.
Our thanks to the GAR Foundation and The Mary S. and David C. Corbin Foundation for each contributing $15,000 to be used by our Homecare division. These funds will
help us maintain services to those older adults who need homecare assistance to continue to live independently.
The Akron Community Foundation has awarded us a $10,000 grant,
through the John A. McAlonan Fund, to support the 2012 Seniors Farmers'
Market Program making it possible for older adults to have fresh produce
they could otherwise not afford.
Thanks to Kaiser Permanente Health Plan of Ohio we will be able to continue
our Brown Bag Medication program for another year with the $17,770 we
received through their Thriving Communities Grants program.
Our appreciation to the members of the Bath Church Mission Board who selected
Mature Services to receive a check for $1000 to help us continue providing services
in the areas of hunger and healthcare.
We have also been awarded a grant for "Elderly In-Home Services" by the Sisler McFawn Foundation in the amount of $7,500.
This will be used to further support our Homecare division and its services. |
