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

I'm caring for my father, who's 85. After a heart attack Shai can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Shai desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Shai worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, and raised 4 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 $4,550 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $3,500
• Medication and prescriptions: $550
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $290
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $210
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
