Grants
Working alone to do everything required to care for a loved one with dementia takes its toll. Getting help can be very costly. The Purple Sherpa will award grants to families affected by dementia for 2019 for respite care and personal care items. Please CLICK HERE to complete a grant application.
In the future, we plan to award grants also for handyman services, errand services, and other simple yet invaluable forms of assistance that can make a big difference in the caregiver’s life. Stay tuned for more…
