Have You Ever Had to Go Without Food?

For many older adults, the answer to this question is yes. Seventy-five-year-old Ms. Smith can attest to that. 

Before we helped her enroll in a food assistance program, Ms. Smith told us “I was unable to pay for groceries and often had to go to food pantries for extra help.”

Nutritious meals are key to maintaining good health as we age. Food prices continue to rise and can be difficult for many older adults to afford. Yet, more than half of those who are eligible are missing out on programs that can help.

You can help us change that.

When you donate to NCOA, we put your gift to work by connecting people like Ms. Smith to benefits and programs that can help them pay for food and other daily expenses.

Last year alone, NCOA improved the health and financial security of 2.3 million people. But millions more like Ms. Smith are struggling. Your gift will help change the world for older adults in need.
