IMPACT
All proceeds go toward our Care For the Caregiver's (CFTC) Relief Program - bringing emotional and financial relief to family caregivers through a one time grant of resources and financial aid.
WHO WE HELP: FAMILY CAREGIVERS.
WHY WE CARE: Caregivers go through more than they will tell you. They are coping with the emotional loss of their best friend while putting on a face and putting their loved one first. They give up a lot and rarely have a social life. They can get sick, emotionally and physically worn out. Not to mention the financial burden they take on. It's a lot for one person. From resources, respite or just a weekend for self care; we aim to bring them relief during what may be the hardest time in their life.
