About the Vashon Care Network
The Vashon Care Network, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, grew out of the need to connect people on Vashon with the services, supplies, and support required to live at home independently. The VCN's mission is to provide support to Islanders through coordination and distribution of physical resources and by networking with community services and individuals. They connect Islanders with information, programs and available services to get them through challenges ranging from finding a hospital bed for a convalescing family member to getting aid and supplies for someone in an unforeseen emergency situation.The VCN offers free medical supplies and equipment from the Care Closet, as well as offering information about individual care and placement options. All members of the Care Network are volunteers, and all services are free.
The Care Closet
VCN acts as an umbrella organization to help Islanders in need, including offering free medical supplies through the Care Closet. Islanders in need of medical equipment or personal hygiene supplies can contact the Care Closet which will provide them free of charge and even deliver them to you if you are unable to pick them up.
The Care Closet is located on site at Vashon Lutheran Church in the two gray barns at the southeast edge of the parking lot.
