Dear John,
Jack and his mother, Sue, lived together. Both of them were hungry because they had to choose between buying enough food and paying utility bills to keep their home warm.
Help came in an unexpected way. An NCOA program sent an outreach coordinator to visit. She noticed something that would change the lives of Jack and Sue: photos of Jack on the living room wall showed the 68-year old was a veteran of the U.S. military. |
The outreach coordinator helped Jack and his 91-year old mother get nursing services, food benefits, utility assistance, transportation, and even home repairs. All that came from one visit and our BenefitsCheckUp® tool.
For every dollar you give by December 31, $211 in benefits can be delivered to older adults, including veterans and their families. Here's how:
- Donate: Help us continue putting older adults in tough with life-saving programs that pay for food, medicine, utilities, and more through our BenefitsCheckUp® tool.
- Give while you shop: Sign up for Amazon Smile and choose National Council on Aging, Inc. as your charity.
- Shape your legacy: Create a free, legally-binding will through our trusted partners at FreeWill.com.
We all deserve to age well. Veterans deserve your support. Thank you for your tax deductible contribution this year.
