Financial support to caretaker families
The current economic climate in South Africa provides various challenges to the public, namely: a tumultuous mining sector and high unemployment rates resulting in financial difficulties; drought and the like resulting in high inflation of food prices.
This has a direct, negative impact on bedridden patients, where fundraising is especially difficult for those with serious diseases.
The Homecare Foundation is in extensive negotiations with large organizations and numerous smaller independent companies nationally to secure funding for caretakers’ financial support.
