Get Involved

Celebrate an Occasion

Turn birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and memorials into acts of kindness — a meal, a rescue or a day of care given in the name of someone you love.

For our rescued elders, an ordinary day becomes special the moment somebody remembers them. Many of them have not had a birthday wished, a sweet shared or a visitor in years.

So we invite you to move your celebration here. Bring the cake and cut it with our residents, or simply sponsor the day from wherever you are — the meals, the medicines, a rescue, or a set of new clothes for everyone at the home.

We photograph the day and send you the pictures with a note of thanks, so the person you dedicated it to can see exactly what their name did.

Ways to Celebrate

Birthdays

Cut the cake with our residents, or sponsor a full day of meals in the name of the birthday child or elder.

Anniversaries

Mark the year with a rescue in your name — fuel, first aid, a bath, fresh clothes and a hot meal for someone found on the street.

Weddings & House-warmings

Share your joy: sponsor grocery kits, blankets or a medical camp instead of another bouquet.

Memorials & Remembrance

Honour a parent or elder who has passed on with a day of care for someone who has no family left.

Sponsor a Meal Day

Breakfast, lunch and dinner for every resident of our free old age home, served in your loved one's name.

Sponsor a Rescue

Cover the cost of one full rescue — from the call and the ambulance run to admission and treatment.

How it works
