“This is more than just a campaign; it’s a movement powered by compassion. Every dollar given through Lenawee Cares helps a neighbor in need, whether it’s food, housing, mental health care, or educational support. I’m honored to help kick off this year’s effort and invite everyone to join us and be part of something truly meaningful.”
