What would you do if you had 5 hours of respite one day from your caregiving responsibilities? Would you catch up on some reading, take a nap, visit with friends, or schedule appointments?

​

This year, Dementia Support Northwest is participating in GivingTuesday!

 

Our goal is to secure funding support for our sliding scale scholarship program, providing 85 hours of respite care at our Lynden and Bellingham social respite programs for one month in 2024. This initiative is dedicated to supporting two care partners in our community whose financial situation prevents them from accessing respite services. Our base fundraising goal is $1,584—about $18 per respite hour—but we’ll only reach that goal through the kindness and generosity of people like you. Will you help by donating one hour of respite, or $18?

“It has been a wonderful addition to our lives.  Shawn and Meghan are great facilitators and genuinely care about the participants.  My husband loves going to the program and I love having the time to myself for two days a week.  He has made friends within the group and I have made friends with the spouses, which is invaluable.  It’s like our own little support group. I recommend this Club wholeheartedly and am grateful for it!”

-Linda, Care Partner
