We can't allow seniors to struggle in 2020, {NAME}

Your support can change everything for a senior in need.   Senior poverty is a crisis in America. It affects millions each day, including thousands in Connecticut. And, {NAME}, if AARP Foundation doesn’t have the resources to address it, seniors will continue to struggle, especially during the winter cold. We can’t allow that. With your voluntary support, we can help provide nutritious meals, financial assistance and social connection opportunities to end senior poverty for good.

I'll donate now!]( Each year, AARP Foundation, AARP’s charitable affiliate, reaches millions of seniors in need — seniors like Janet C. from Florida. Janet worked for the same company for 22 years until the business closed and she was left without a job. Her husband had just recently passed away, and as the mother of two college students, financial worry set in. Then, Janet found BACK TO WORK 50+ — our program that provides job training, coaching and workforce tools — and everything changed. Through interview practice, LinkedIn training and meetings with career counselors, she felt equipped for today’s job market. She nailed her interview and got a job she loves: “I’m happy. I’m providing a service. My office is in the clinic, so I get to meet people and feel like I can really help.” Janet’s story represents that of so many seniors, {NAME}, and it’s all possible because of people like you. But, today, there are still 1 in 7 seniors living in poverty and more than 37 million who are just one life event away from slipping into it. Those are the seniors we need to reach — and we can’t do that without you. [Please make a life-changing, tax-deductible donation today to rush support to struggling seniors.
