Donate COUPONS for cancer and military families

Save to Favorites

Financial hardship often accompanies a cancer diagnosis - be it from the cost of the treatment itself or in lost wages when the patient or caregiver has to stop working. This makes providing free resources to patients and caregivers critical. While it’s true that a number of cancer-related organizations exist in the region, our market research has outlined specific areas that are lacking in service provision to the cancer community. These include access to food and hygiene products necessary to promote nutrition and cleanliness needed for a healthy recovery. Nightingale’s Harvest helps address this gap in local services by being the only free food bank for cancer patients and their families in the region. The program provides perishable and non-perishable foods, personal hygiene items, and home cleaning products at no cost to cancer households in Northwest Ohio and Southeastern Michigan. Nightingale’s Harvest stands out because of the personal involvement that each cancer patient receives, including home visits to assess needs, home delivery of food, personal hygiene items, toiletries and cleaning products, and referrals to community resources to help meet other needs the patient may have. Manufacturer coupons, including expired, are needed by the pantry to do their extreme couponing. This is one way of stretching our funds. Please check our website: nightingales-harvest.org We would appreciate if would collect coupons from friends and neighbors on a weekly basis and drop them off at the pantry. If you would like to help with the cutting and organizing that is great. **Coupons that we do not use are given to Humana to send to our military families overseas. They are able to use expired coupons up to 6 months at the commisary.** We have outgrown our space and moving into Our Savior Lutheran Church, 2820 Alexis Road, Toledo OH 43613 - across from Whitmer High School.
