MILWAUKEE, WI - June 5, 2007 - The Caregivers Marketplace is joining with The CareGiver Partnership, a woman-owned, national, direct-to-consumer retailer of healthcare products, to offer consumers ongoing cash back on purchases of eligible brand name items.   The Caregivers Marketplace is the only program offering the nation's 44 million family caregivers cash back on products typically not covered by health insurance or Medicare.  A family caregiver is anyone who cares for a friend or family member who is disabled, aging or in need of assistance with activities of daily living.  Prior to this partnership, caregivers had to rely on brick-and-mortar retailers; The CareGiver Partnership offers convenient home delivery.

  To date, The CareGiver Partnership is the only direct-to-consumer retailer that Caregivers Marketplace has welcomed as an official retail outlet.  When consumers purchase eligible products from The CareGiver Partnership, they will learn the benefits of Caregivers Marketplace from a knowledgeable product specialist.  From that point forward, The CareGiver Partnership will submit cash back request forms to Caregivers Marketplace on behalf of the consumer when they purchase eligible brands such as Depend®, Poise®, Cottonelle®, Huggies®, Ensure®, Pull-Ups®, and others.

  The CareGiver Partnership also offers an automatic replenishment program, Never Run Out^SM, that ensures caregivers will not run out of the supplies they need.

  "We are excited to join forces with Caregivers Marketplace," said Lynn Wilson, owner of The CareGiver Partnership.  "At The CareGiver Partnership, our product specialists pride themselves in offering personalized service to each of our customers.  We know caregiving can be a financial struggle, so we're looking forward to helping caregivers receive ongoing rebates through Caregivers Marketplace."
