100+Women can help support Carefor by assisting us in subsidizing non-urgent transportation for vulnerable women within Renfrew County to medical appointments.

Comments from the 100+ Women Committee:
The Foundation awarded $2500 to Carefor Health and Community Services- Renfrew County- for their transportation project! With their grant, we hope to help them reduce the financial barrier (fee for service) for vulnerable women to access this vital service to attend medical appointments within as well as outside of Renfrew County.
Carefor's Renfrew County operation serves the largest county in Ontario. At over seven million square kilometres, their services span 18 municipalities on a daily basis. Geographical distances are a major hurdle in obtaining supports in this region, and Carefor plays a significant role in this region because of its ability to connect with all communities.
