Help a 104 year old WWII US Army Veteran stay at home

Max Gurney celebrated his 104st birthday on June 10th! He is a WWII US Army Veteran and served under General Patton in North Africa and Sicily and under General Mark Clark in Italy. After the war he had an amazing 45 year career with Pan-Am.

Max is living alone in his apartment in La Jolla CA and is fortunate enough to have home health care aids provided by the Veteran's Administration during the day.
Unfortunately, Max is alone at night and after two recent falls, his friends are working to hire home health care aids to stay with him at night. The average cost for a home health care aid is $25/hour.

Any contributions to help Max stay at home would be greatly appreciated.

Max worked for Pam-Am and was posted all over the world. Max is fluent in French and Italian and his final assignment was Monaco.
