Did you know only 2% of charitable giving supports seniors?

Getting older shouldn’t mean being overlooked.
We need your help to amplify the voices of older adults who are too often forgotten. The Big Day of Giving is a 24-hour giving challenge that brings the region together to support the nonprofits that serve our community.

Across the nation, only 2% of charitable giving supports seniors, despite the growing needs of an aging population. And right here at Eskaton, 50% of the older adults we serve live below the poverty line, making our mission not just important, but essential.

By donating to the Eskaton Foundation, you help fund vital programs that create stability, connection, and dignity for older adults in our communities, including:

• Affordable Housing Safety Net Grant
  Provides short‑term, in‑home support and supplemental care hours in our affordable housing communities—helping at‑risk older adults remain safe, independent, and housed during times of temporary hardship.
• Intergenerational Grant
  Fosters meaningful relationships between residents and local students through shared experiences that spark joy, learning, and a sense of belonging across generations.
• Resident Assistance Grant
  Ensures those who have outlived their financial resources through no fault of their own can remain in the homes and communities they love, without being displaced by unexpected financial challenges.

We hope you’ll join us at one of our upcoming community fundraising events. Each Eskaton community will host a fun, creative event for Big Day of Giving, inviting residents, families, and friends to come together in support of creating meaningful moments for older adults.

Your Generosity creates moments that matter.

Give. Share. Join us in creating a future where no one ages alone.
