This Hot Cares Christmas, we’re celebrating Patricia O’Neill—a 73-year-old widow who has spent decades selflessly supporting her community and caring for her daughter, Michelle, who has Cerebral Palsy.

Despite limited resources, Patricia’s love and devotion to her family and neighbours are truly inspiring. This festive season, we’re stepping in to make life a little easier for Patricia and Michelle, helping them face each day with greater comfort and dignity.
