Building Bridges


As a mobile enrollment specialist on The Ohio Benefit Bank Mobile Express I am constantly trying to develop connections that will allow us to better serve the clients at the events which we attend.  One of the ways this can be accomplished is by working alongside other organizations who share our aims to help people in need.

Recently, The Mobile Express had an opportunity to work with The Breathing Association Mobile Medical Unit at Lutheran Social Services’ Champion Avenue Food Pantry in Columbus. 


The Breathing Association promotes lung health and helps prevent lung disease through education, detection and service in the low-income and minority populations of Columbus.


They provided some great services to the clients at the LSS-Champion Avenue Food Pantry, such as a free health screening, an opportunity to schedule an appointment at The Breathing Association’s free clinic where they could renew their prescriptions, and even offered a free flu shot!

It is mutually beneficial relationships like this one that can really assist people who are trying to help Ohioans in need.  If you are in Franklin County, and are interested in contacting The Breathing Association Mobile Medical Unit regarding your next event, you can contact them at (614) 273-2843 or visit their website.
