Summary
After fifty years of serving Prince George’s seniors and mobility-challenged residents, the Carefree Society is shutting down due to funding shortages, opting to sell assets to reinvest in the community rather than go into debt. Once the backbone of HandyDART services, they’re now working to transfer their building and accessible bus, hoping another group will keep vital rides running. Their closure leaves a painful gap in local support systems, spotlighting the financial strain on essential nonprofits. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
