Vernon and His Wife Ate Twice a Day to Afford Food All Month
You’ve heard it in the news.
When budgets are stretched, older adults are forced to make tough decisions. The choice could be between:
- Buying food OR getting a prescription
- Paying the utility bill OR buying gas to get to work and the doctor
What about only eating twice a day, so your food can last a whole month? Or paying for cancer treatments or simply going without? What if both of these were a reality for you? It was for 65-year-old Vernon and his wife.

"I noticed my dad looking a little thinner," Vernon’s daughter tearfully told our benefits counselor.
NCOA connected the family to life-changing benefits that mean her parents don’t have to keep choosing this OR that. Now, her parents CAN eat three times a day and afford nutritious food—and that can have a positive impact on their health. "Being eligible for these benefits is a lifesaver for my parents,” she told us.
Change the world for someone in need, like Vernon and his wife. Your gift will make a difference for millions of older adults (and daughters) everywhere!
