Hacienda HealthCare
Founded in 1967 as Hacienda de los Angeles, a single facility serving three children, Hacienda has continued to expand to meet the needs of the ever-increasing numbers of infants, children and young adults who require the high level of medical and habilitation care offered by the organization. Today, Hacienda is Arizona’s leading provider of specialized health care and social services to infants, children and young adults who have medical, physical and intellectual impairments. Hacienda’s comprehensive service system is capable of meeting the habilitation, restorative and long-term needs of individuals who are victims of genetic disorders, birth trauma, accidents, physical abuse and debilitating or life threatening diseases.

Oakwood Creative Care
Oakwood Creative Care was organized as Sirrine Adult Day Care of Mesa, Inc., in 1975 by a group of concerned citizens.The corporate name was changed to Oakwood Creative Care in early 2013 in response to a need to develop an identity that is easily remembered and better expresses our mission. Oakwood Creative Care offers a unique service in the continuum of elder care for residents of Mesa and surrounding communities. We offer long-term support to a vulnerable population afflicted with Alzheimer’s Disease, other dementias, stroke, and other conditions of impairment. Understanding that the condition of the elder family member affects the entire family unit, services are also offered for caregivers. Ultimately, our goal is to support the senior in maintaining the highest possible quality of life for as long possible, while supporting the family caregiver. Our innovative programs offer activities and wellness with a professional staff team and support services for the families. Oakwood offers the Adult Day Health Services in two locations, Town Center Day Club (247 N. MacDonald) and Red Mountain Day Club (7550 E. Adobe Road) in Mesa.

United Food Bank

We achieve our mission by providing food and related commodities to people in need through a network of 255 partner agencies; partnering with emergency food programs and other nonprofits that meet the needs of food-insecure people; providing a system for distributing food and commodities; educating the public about hunger; and providing services with compassion and respect for the clients’ dignity. As a Feeding America affiliate, United Food Bank is part of a 200-food bank network that provides connections to national food companies. As part of the Association of Arizona Food Banks, United Food Bank works to disseminate information on poverty and hunger, as well as cooperate on food distribution. In 2010, United Food Bank relocated to a new facility at 245 S Nina Drive in Mesa. This move enabled us to triple our storage capacity and feed more people. We still do all of our sorting and volunteer activities at our original location at 358 E Javelina Avenue in Mesa. United Food Bank’s service area is over 25,000 square miles, approximately 22% of Arizona’s total land area. Approximately 22% of Arizona’s total population is in United Food Bank’s service area.
