Hi everyone,
I want to say a heartfelt thank-you to the 61 people who have already supported our Kiva loan. Because of you, Mobile Memory Enrichment is almost half funded, with $3,550 remaining toward our $7,000 goal.
Your support is helping us grow something that means so much to me: meaningful connection for people living with dementia and practical support for the families who love them.
In Oregon, approximately 188,000 unpaid dementia caregivers provide 291 million hours of care valued at $8 billion.
Conventional in-home caregiving costs approximately $40 per hour. For a family purchasing five hours of support each week, that can add up to approximately $867 per month.
But Mobile Memory Enrichment is not a traditional caregiving agency.
We provide personalized dementia enrichment and real-time coaching for families and caregivers while we are in the home. Our visits can also create opportunities for caregivers to take a much-needed break.
Our monthly plans include:
• 1 session: $65.
• 2 sessions: $120.
• 4 sessions: $220.
• 8 sessions: $400.
These focused visits give families another way to access meaningful support without purchasing a larger caregiving schedule than they need.
Since the beginning of 2024, we have provided 1,384 enrichment sessions. This year alone, we have added four adult foster homes, welcomed four new in-home clients, and expanded our team.
We successfully repaid our first Kiva loan, and this second opportunity will help us reach even more families.
If you believe in what we are building, I would be so grateful if you would lend or share our campaign:

Thank you for helping make this work possible. No one should have to walk the dementia journey alone.
Kiva is a loan, not a donation. With Kiva you can lend as little as $25 and make a big change in someone's life.
