Thank you for considering supporting the Healthy Aging Innovation Center

Access to care for our seniors is in serious jeopardy. The United States will soon have 70 million seniors with only 1.7 million licensed beds to care for them. Meanwhile only 13% of those needing care can afford a facility even if it were available. To compound the problem, the availability of family caregivers is expected to drop by 43% by 2030 and only 14% of older adults needing care can afford to pay for in-home care. The good news is that statistics show that seniors want to age at home!

Your donation will help us supply senior service providers with educational programs, events, and newsletters about innovations that can strengthen a senior’s ability to age at home that they can pass on to the seniors they serve. Seniors desperately need information about innovations that can help them manage their medications, monitor their vitals and help prevent falls.

Our seniors deserve better!

Sincerely,
The Center Team
