Light a Candle to a Loved One and Raise Alzheimer's Disease Awareness

Light a Candle is a great way to share your love and support for really anyone or any cause. The site is on Caring.com, which is a website that offers help to anyone caring for their loved one. You can light a candle for a loved one and get a personal web page to share your story. You can share your candle on your blog or website. You can light a candle as a tribute to someone who has passed away or to your favorite cause or even someone living with an affliction.

This is also a great way to connect with others with similar issues and find support and possible stress relief, while raising awareness of the public to your cause.

You can choose from one of the listed causes or add your own, state whom you're honoring and a short story about them. You then can take a created widget to place on your own site or blog. Joining is free, as is your personal page, which will give you access to others with similar concerns, discussions and local news related to your cause.

This is not a way of patting one's self on the back for self promotion, but rather a way of connecting with others who have gone through, or still are undergoing all the issues that come with being a caregiver of someone. It is a great way of finding some relief while allowing a caregiver an outlet of dealing with very difficult issues.

Give a shout to the world about the person you are caring for. You are their voice to the world, and you will find a wealth of information and understanding from others who have gained experience from dealing with many issues you may be facing now.
