Originally Mid Lane Community Chest, Mid Lane Cares was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non profit organization in April of 1970.
The founding members began with food baskets in a garage for a few neighbors in need at the holidays. Over the years, Mid Lane Cares has evolved to serve the 475 square mile area known as Fern Ridge with eight programs. Our programs touch one in four families in our community.
