Dear John,
Ms. Carmody spent her days as a crossing guard for the neighborhood school kids. The job gave her purpose, a small income, and health coverage to depend on as she grew older.
But then she was diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, a progressive lung disease that meant she needed an oxygen tank. She was forced to give up her job—along with her paycheck and benefits.
Ms. Carmody came to HOPES Community Action Program, an NCOA-supported Benefits Enrollment Center in New Jersey, for help. Staff screened her for multiple benefits programs and determined she was eligible for both Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Staff helped her apply.
Today, Ms. Carmody has the security of $108 every month for food, plus critical health care coverage. She can age with dignity—something we all deserve.
This holiday, you can help more older adults like Ms. Carmody connect to benefits to pay for daily needs.
Our research shows that every $1 donated to NCOA = at least $150 in yearly benefits for older adults through our free BenefitsCheckUp®.
Support NCOA with a tax-deductible gift today. We’re a highly rated charity, and your donation will help more older adults like Ms. Carmody in the new year. Thank you!
