As a non-profit organization, The Ohio Masonic Communities Resource Center bridges the gap between you and the resources you or your loved one needs. Whether you or your loved one is a Mason, Eastern Star, family member, or community resident, we help you access essential products and services — from durable medical equipment like stair lifts, walkers, wheelchairs, and personal emergency response systems to everyday assistance with benefit applications, home care coordination, and finding your local senior center.
