The Caregiver Respite Initiative
ALL ENTRIES MADE WILL BE ENTERED INTO OUR MAY 31st, 2024 INITIATIVE. ENTRIES CLOSE AT MIDNIGHT ON MAY 31st, 2024.
The Caregiver Respite Initiative is one of three funded programs established by The Caregiver Club®. It is our way to validate, thank, and support caregivers locally and across the country. We believe caregiving for an individual with Alzheimer’s or dementia is a 24/7 commitment. This respite initiative helps refresh and uplift a caregiver’s mental and emotional health. The respite funding will allow caregivers to return to caregiving in a better state of mind and body. Click below to learn more and to place a nomination today!
We are asking for basic contact information and an explanation of why this caregiver deserves recognition and support from The Caregiver Club®. We are not restricting the nominated caregivers by location, economic status, age, race, or religion.
The Caregiver Club® has a nomination form that is required for each applicant. We ask that individuals nominate a caregiver only via our website form. You can find our nomination form at the bottom of this page.
Requirements:
- Nominees can be professional caregivers or unpaid family caregivers.
- Caregivers need to be caring for somebody with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia.
- Caregivers have not previously received our respite funds.
- Caregivers can be located anywhere in the U.S.
- Caregiver fact-checking will be performed before gifts are granted.
- Caregivers will be asked to complete a post-gift survey to help guide future gifts and programming.
- Recipients of The Caregiver Club’s® monetary check have to wait a full year from the date of their awarded cycle to apply. For example if you received a monetary check from The Caregiver Club® in the May 31st, 2024 respite cycle you can not apply again to The Caregiver Club’s® Repite initiative until the September 31st, 2025 cycle.
- Not everyone will receive a monetary check in each cycle. If you only received a care package and no funding from The Caregiver Club® you are free to apply in the next cycle. Your entry will not roll over to the next cycle. You must reapply to be entered into that cycle.
Recognition Schedule and Information
The Caregiver Club® will replicate the caregiver selection process 3 times a year starting in 2023. Our Respite Initiative will close at midnight on January 31st, May 31st, and September 30th.
Depending on funds available caregivers will receive a monetary gift to help elevate caregiver stress. Additionally, they will receive a Caregiver Club gift set, a list of respite suggestions, and certificate of recognition. We are asking that caregivers use these funds in good faith towards one of the suggested respite ideas.
If you would like to help support this program please donate today.
