Home care fund for Omolara in Onitsha
Omolara can't afford the care She needs after a stroke last July; we're asking for $650.
🇳🇬 Nigeria906 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 86. After a stroke last July Omolara can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Omolara desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Omolara worked all of her life as a carpenter, 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $650 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $100
• Part-time carer (eight months): $500
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50
Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Usman
Quick update: $158 raised so far (24%). we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($83 in total) I made the first payment toward part-time carer. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
