Dear John,
Isaac was just beginning to enjoy his semi-retirement. He had lived in the same town his entire life and had several childhood friends in the area. Three mornings a week, they gathered at the local coffee shop where Isaac picked up a part-time job serving coffee and chatting with the regular customers.
Then everything changed.
One morning, Isaac’s partner suffered a stroke. Practically overnight, Isaac’s world was turned upside down. Amid the confusion of everything that he learned at the hospital, it became clear that he would now need to become a full-time caregiver for his partner navigating new medical information, managing medications and appointments, and balancing his partner’s needs with his own health.
This is the reality for millions of caregivers across the country – and it’s one of the many reasons why NCOA’s work is so essential.
Your renewed support today ensures that caregivers like Isaac have access to trusted information, community support, and the resources they need to care for those they love.
And today, your impact can go twice as far.
Thanks to NCOA’s Board, all gifts of $75 or more that are made before midnight will be matched 1:1 , doubling your support for older adults, caregivers, and aging services professionals. As we know, aging isn’t a solo journey, it takes all of us.
Double Your Impact for Aging Well
