About Care is very proud to announce our new "Toner Donor" program for our corporate partners and sponsors. This new program is truly a win-win for us ALL.
Here's how it works... for every ink or toner cartridge you purchase through our new online ordering site, About Care earns an average of $3.Virtually all makes and models of printers are supported, so we can become your one-stop-shop! Check out the About Care Tonor Donor Brochure!
Here's the good part for you... your company will likely save between 10% and 40%. We purchase from the same manufacturers as the national office supply superstores. But, with lower overhead, the savings are passed to you...and all products are 100% guaranteed. Order Ink TODAY!

Intel Delivers Big!
Intel employees are very generous as they provided over 400 wrapped gifts for our elderly and physically challenged homebound neighbors. For many of our neighbors, these were the only gifts they received during the holidays. A local Girl Scout troop and volunteers from About Care became elves and delivered the presents to our clients. Watch the Girl Scout troop 1661's slide presentation. Thank you Intel Employees, Girl Scout Troop 1661 and About Care Volunteers!
Volunteers Needed!
If you are interested in volunteering, please call Beth Summers at 480.802.2331. You will be required to come into the About Care office for an interview and training. Please bring your driver’s license and proof of car insurance. Applications are available on-line or in person. Orientations are done Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. It only takes a little time to make a big difference in someone else’s life.
Thank you Data Doctors and The Kings Reply Ministry
When one of our Neighbors found himself bedridden, Jeff Schwimmer, owner of Data Doctors and spokesman for The Kings Reply Ministry, was quick to provide what Burt considers to be an enormous Blessing in the way of a brand new laptop. This laptop provides 3 things that Burt has been doing without, a wide screen, keypad, and perhaps most importantly, a webcam and link to the outside world via skype. When we asked Jeff if he would like to share a few words with our neighbors and volunteers, he simply said, "Just Quote ...And The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me." Matthew 25:40" Check out The Kings Reply on FaceBook.
Our Wish List
About Care is currently looking for a local restaurant to help us honor our volunteers on a monthly basis. We are seeking to have a volunteer of the month enjoy lunch for 2 (which hopefully would include a client who is homebound). If you know of anyone who can help us with this, please contact us at 480.802.2331.
We need the following
Donated Office Space
Gift Cards
Gas Cards
Printers
Volunteer Name Tags
About Care Shirts for Staff and volunteers
If you or anyone you know can help us with any of these items, please call us today at 480.802.2331. Your donation is tax deductible as we are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
