Aging

Health Advocates for Older People

The Foundation’s grants in Aging prioritize programs that enable older New Yorkers to age in place and avoid institutional placement while maintaining the maximum quality of life and remaining connected to the community. The Foundation focuses on organizations which provide direct services either in a group setting or in the home.

Since inception, the Foundation has awarded $7.6 million in the area of Aging.
