Harsh wants to stay at home - help fund eight months of care
Help Harsh stay in his own home with eight months of part-time care.

I'm caring for my father, who's 96. After a diagnosis of dementia Harsh can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Harsh desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Harsh worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $3,850 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $2,750
• Medication and prescriptions: $680
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $230
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $190
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
