2026 is officially underway, John – and I know it’s going to be our biggest year yet.

I am feeling so energized as we get moving. At the end of last year, we set an ambitious fundraising goal, to fuel the work ahead – and this community stepped up to meet the moment. Thanks to your commitment, we’re entering this year stronger than ever, and we’re ready to hit the ground running.

You’ve already heard a little about our plans for 2026, but I want to share what I’m most excited about: this year, we will talk to one million people across the country to better understand how they think about care. 

These conversations – online and offline – will reach families, caregivers, those who need care, and communities with a wide range of experiences and perspectives, and help ensure that our work toward a future of equitable, accessible care doesn’t leave anyone out.

John, all of this is possible because of you. Every dollar you’ve donated, every call you’ve made to a lawmaker, and every act of care you’ve shown in your community – each one is a seed you’ve planted for a brighter future for care. This year, I can’t wait to watch them bloom with you.

With care and excitement,

Nicole Jorwic, Chief Program Officer
Caring Across Generations
