Northwoods Caregivers

Northwoods Caregivers Connecting, Enriching, and Empowering the Lives of Northwoods Individuals and Families.

The idea of Northwoods Interfaith was introduced to the area after three separate surveys identified a gap in services to the elderly and people with special needs. The Bemidji Area Council of Nonprofits was asked to become the lead agency on this new program's development and in 1997, a meeting of area congregations, interested residents, and human service agencies was held to research community response to the project. The group then assigned a steering committee to carry out the necessary work, and in July of 1998, a full time Executive Director was hired. Since then, the program has grown to include more staff and has provided more than 10,000 hours of direct service each year. Funding for Northwoods Caregivers provided by:

WOW! Another successful Senior Community Clean-Up Event in the books! Our community showed up in a big way this year with over 250 volunteers coming together to rake over 40 yards for seniors and people with disabilities in Bemidji. That is 5 large dumpsters PACKED with leaves! Thank you to all of our sponsors for supporting this event. Thank you to our partners the United Way of Bemidji Area and Boys & Girls Club of the Bemidji Area! And again thank you to all of our amazing volunteers of all ages!! See you all next year! 😄
