At VridhCare, we have always believed that caring for the elderly begins with understanding their daily struggles. Over the years, while working closely with old age homes and underprivileged senior citizens, one concern kept coming back to us again and again — elderly hygiene.
Many senior citizens suffer quietly due to age-related health issues, reduced mobility, or long-term illnesses. For them, basic tasks like using the toilet, maintaining cleanliness, or even changing clothes can become extremely difficult. In such situations, adult diapers are not a luxury, but a necessity. They help seniors stay clean, comfortable, and dignified throughout the day.
This is why VridhCare started its online crowdfunding campaigns — to bring this hidden issue into the open and to invite people to support elderly care in a meaningful way.
Why We Chose Online Crowdfunding
The needs were urgent and ongoing. Old age homes shared how difficult it was to arrange adult diapers regularly due to limited funds. Many homes were forced to reduce usage, even when seniors needed them the most.
Online crowdfunding allowed us to reach caring individuals across the country who wanted to help but did not always know where to start. Through these campaigns, every contribution directly helped seniors live with better hygiene and comfort.
Platforms We Used
VridhCare conducted its crowdfunding campaigns through Milaap, DonateKart, and Charitism. These platforms helped us connect with donors who believed in elder dignity and practical care.
Across all three platforms, our message remained clear and consistent:
- Elderly hygiene is a serious issue
- Adult diapers are essential for many seniors
- Timely support can immediately improve daily life in old age homes
The campaign videos shared real stories, real needs, and real solutions. We spoke openly about what was required and how donations would be used.
How the Support Helped
Funds and supplies received through these campaigns were used to:
- Provide adult diapers to old age homes and bedridden seniors
- Support hygiene care for elderly residents
- Reduce discomfort, infections, and health risks
- Help caregivers manage daily care with dignity and ease
Each donation, big or small, made a visible difference in the lives of elderly men and women who often feel forgotten.
Moving Forward Together
Our crowdfunding journey is not just about raising funds. It is about raising awareness. It is about reminding society that our elders deserve care, comfort, and respect in every stage of life.
With continued support, VridhCare will keep working towards better hygiene, better care, and a more dignified life for every senior citizen who needs us.
