I'm Preethi and I work in Business Operations for Making Space. I'm taking part in this skydive on the 19th of July and raising money for Making Space as I see first-hand how vital our support is for people with disabilities, mental health conditions, and those living with dementia and Alzheimer's. But altogether, I'm feeling excited, nervous, and absolutely thrilled to take part in this!
Coming from an Indian background, there isn’t traditionally a strong concept of care homes for the elderly—families often take on full-time caring responsibilities themselves. My own mother cares for my grandmother, who has dementia, and I see how demanding and emotionally challenging that role can be. It is often underappreciated, yet it requires immense strength and compassion. Through my work at Making Space, I understand how important it is to have the right support systems in place, and I want to help raise funds so we can continue to provide and improve these essential services.
I have always wanted to do a skydive, but having the opportunity to do it in support of a cause so close to my heart made the decision even more meaningful. This is my way of contributing and raising awareness for the incredible work that goes into caring for vulnerable individuals. Anyone who has a loved one with additional needs will understand how important this support is—and every contribution helps make a difference.
