The Youngtown Community Fund Medical Lending Center is facing an unprecedented financial crisis and is at risk of closing its doors.
For more than 60 years, the Medical Lending Center has provided, free of charge, vital durable medical equipment and support to those in need in the local community. However, because of a drop in corporate and municipal grants, economic challenges and rising operational costs, it is in urgent need of financial support to continue serving the community.
The Medical Lending Center has been a lifeline for thousands of individuals in Youngtown, Surprise, Peoria and surrounding areas, offering wheelchairs, walkers, shower chairs, and other essential medical equipment to residents who may not be able to afford them otherwise. This service helps ensure that no one in the community is left without the resources they need for recovery and mobility.
