How do I get started?

Care

Hilarity for Charity and the Home Instead Senior Care network are working together to award in-home care grants throughout the United States and Canada to those providing care to their loved ones living with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias through our Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care Relief Grant Program. While there is currently no cure for Alzheimer's, there is care. The goal of our care grant program is to provide exceptional in-home care to families affected by this disease and to give these families support and rest. To date, we have provided over 8,000 hours of respite care to Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers in need.

“I cannot begin to tell you how much this grant has meant to me..The gift of this treasured grant allows me some rest each week, and/or time to run errands. When our caregiver arrives, I am able to leave with peace of mind..Thanks from the bottom of my heart for providing funds for our 'angel' each week” – Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care Relief Grant Program grant recipient

SUPPORT & AWARENESS

Hilarity for Charity’s goal is to mobilize a new generation of Alzheimer’s advocates while supporting young people who are currently affected by the disease. We provide a variety of support and awareness initiatives, including a Google hangout support group; focusing on the unique needs of people under the age of 40 navigating their way through this disease and "This Is Alzheimer's"; a feature length film documenting what Alzheimer’s looks like for three different families facing the disease.

"As someone newer to this journey, the Hilarity for Charity group was a lifeline during a time full of confusion and uncertainty. While there is still a great deal of unknown, being able to connect and empathize with other younger caregivers who have shared similar experiences is of immeasurable help." – Google Hangout Support Group participant

"As a busy mom of three kids as well as my mom's caretaker, I have felt overwhelmed and alone in my situation. Being part of the Google Hangout group has been incredible, because I no longer feel alone, and it's a great feeling to know there are others that can relate to exactly what I'm going through. The support and encouragement of the Google Hangout group helps me cope better as I go through this Alzheimer's journey with my mom." - Google Hangout Support Group participant

RESEARCH

Each year, Hilarity for Charity earmarks up to 50% of revenue to cutting edge research through the Alzheimer’s Association’s International Research Grant Program. We are proud to have directly sponsored grants focused on early-onset and detection of Alzheimer’s disease.
