Thank Caregivers for all they do!

​If you know someone who takes care of a friend or loved one, then you know someone who probably could use a lift.  Below are some ideas to get you started.  Let us know how it made you feel to help a Caregiver

• Cook him/her a meal and deliver it to relieve the chore of preparing dinner
• Offer to pick up prescriptions for the person who is getting care and deliver them
• Write him/her a letter to thank them for sacrifices and perseverance
• Pick up his/her children and take them to whatever after-school appointments or events that are on the calendar

• Gather a group of friends to decorate their home for the holidays 
• Ask if you can help with any needed yard work, or home repairs
• Deliver a plate of their favorite cookies – then stay to chat for a bit
• Help tutor their children, or take over some books they might want to read
• Grab a couple of board games or a deck of cards and stop by for an evening of play
• Get your kids or grandkids to draw encouraging messages on the sidewalk outside their home in chalk
• Ask if they might need assistance paying bills or answering calls/emails

• Buy a gift card to their favorite restaurant – or offer to take them out
• Send, or drop off a bouquet of flowers to brighten their day
• Drop off some movies or CD’s for their enjoyment
• Hire a credentialed massage therapist to make a house call
• Pick up several days’ worth of groceries and drop them off at the house
• Give her a pedicure, foot massage, or a manicure
• Shovel snow off the walkway and drive as needed
• Give them HUGS
