This Giving Tuesday, Give a Caregiver the Gift of Discovery

 

 

Caregivers are our heroes. They are the spouses, partners and friends who put the needs of their loved ones first, often sacrificing their own well-being. 

Our goal this Giving Tuesday is to raise $20,000 to fund 10 caregiver grants, providing a much-needed opportunity for rest, renewal and the joy of a learning adventure. 

 

 

 

"I couldn't have afforded this experience without a Road Scholar Caregiver Grant. This trip to see these extraordinary art collections was a dream come true. It also took me away from my day-to-day concerns, so I could rest and recharge to go home and be a stronger caregiver. Please accept my heartfelt thanks for your thoughtful generosity in providing me with the opportunity to expand my horizons and to be refreshed and renewed through this Road Scholar program."

Why Your Support Matters 

 

Caregiving is an act of love, but it can also be incredibly isolating and demanding. Many caregivers postpone their own dreams and adapt their own lives, rarely getting a moment to recharge their spirits. 

A Road Scholar caregiver grant is more than just a program — it’s a lifeline. It’s a chance for a dedicated caregiver to step away, rediscover their own sense of self and connect with a community of fellow learners. They return to their loved ones with renewed energy, ready to continue their important work.
