I CARE TOO TESTIMONIALS

“I had to be at 2 hospitals at the same time which was impossible at the time. I contacted I Care Too and they were able to be there for my brother while I stayed with my mom after a car accident. I love the mission and the commitment to being supportive in my time of need.”
– Y. Weekly

“My friend was stabbed, and I was out of town, I called I Care Too and they were on the spot. I felt secure in knowing that they treat companions as their family. My friend said she spoke up for him and was able to give him understanding about options he had. He was grateful and so was I for a service that was much needed with a whole lot of love.”
