# It takes $60 a day to support one elderly resident in our Home. Elderly persons admitted to our Home usually face family or financial situations such as: 1. being no longer able to care for themselves due to old age and physical or medical problems; 2. having no immediate family, or having family members who have passed away or who are themselves elderly and are thus no longer able to provide care; 3. having severe conflicts within the family; 4. having financial problems that make commercially operated sheltered homes out of their reach. ["60-Dollar A Day"](https://www.giving.sg/stjohnshomesg/60dollar) is a fundraising campaign to raise funds for the day-to-day provisions to our elderly residents.  The campaign will run from 12 September 2021 to 30 April 2022.

 

We are not a Government-subvented Home and depend largely on the public's generosity to enable us to continue our work. Your donations will be greatly appreciated.

This campaign is matched by [Tote Board's Enhanced Fund-Raising Programme.](https://www.toteboard.gov.sg/grants/fund-raising-programme)  Your donations are multiplied!

We thank you for supporting our elderly residents.
