| “COVID has really devastated our lives. Lost 3 family members. I live off my Social Security, $1,000 monthly for rent, food, bills. Cannot afford food or pay my utilities. In reality, very scared to lose my home.” – Marina, California |
Dear John,
Marina is among the millions of older adults struggling with their health, their financial security, and loneliness during the pandemic. For far too many, their lives will never be the same.
This holiday season, you can support older adults like Marina by making a gift to NCOA. Your generosity will help in many ways—and there are many ways to give.
- Donate: Make your donation directly online to ensure our nationally recognized BenefitsCheckUp® program will help low-income older adults immediately connect to life-saving programs that pay for food, medicine, utilities, and more.
- Give while you shop: Sign up for Amazon Smile and choose National Council on Aging, Inc. as your charity. With every purchase, you’ll be supporting older adults who are struggling to afford basic needs like groceries and health care.
- Shape your legacy: Create a free, legally-binding will through our trusted partners at FreeWill.com.
If your gift is received by December 31, it is tax deductible for 2020. NCOA is a highly rated charity.
John, we all deserve to age with dignity and security. Thank you for your support.
