“Ohana means family...MCH creates family,
and nothing says family like home.”

This year Medina Creative Housing is celebrating Ohana. In Hawaii, Ohana means family and that is not only blood relatives. MCH creates family, and nothing says family like home. The Weymouth School is where it all started in Ohio, and this year we are coming home. MCH offers all individuals with disabilities access to safe housing, employment, recreational and therapeutic programming.


MCH, the leader in offering these services, is addressing the growing need, but unfortunately the waiting list is too long. Once a year, we ask the community to support Medina Creative Housing’s efforts through our annual "Raising the Roof" Dinner & Entertainment Charity Benefit. Your generous support enables us to touch the lives of individuals with disabilities in a very special way. Thank you for helping us and we thank you in advance for giving generously this year. 


Travel with us to Hawaii and “Catch the Wave” by attending our event, becoming a sponsor, and/or donating an auction item. As a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization, we do not receive tax levy dollars and must rely heavily on community support to fulfill our mission of service to the more than 800 children, youth and adults with disabilities we serve.
