C.A.R.E. Fair 2008

The C.A.R.E. Fair is set for July 18th (9 am - 7 pm) & July 19th (9 am - 3 pm) at Sunnyside High School.

The primary focus of the C.A.R.E. Fair is to give families who need assistance with health & human services an opportunity to get it. Every year since 1989, more than 40 health & human service agencies, businesses & government entities come together for the 2-day, “one stop-shopping” event. Each year, over 500 volunteers & agency staff provide free services to over 10,000 children and adults. The services include: Immunizations, Health physicals, Bicycle helmets, Car seats, School supplies, Health insurance, & much more!

The C.A.R.E. Fair is a free event & is open to everyone. However, some agencies have eligibility requirements. Be sure you bring Identification, Proof of Residence, Proof of Income, & Immunization Records with you as those items may be required to obtain some services. Also, children under 18 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian for health physicals.
