Here at Adopt an Elder Foundation, we know that sometimes all it takes to change the world is a little support. Since our founding in 2001, we have been determined to make an impact. The core of our efforts is to provide financial and advocacy assistance to low-income, high-risk elders that afford them the opportunity for safe housing, proper nutrition, and healthcare access, so they can maintain an appropriate degree of independence and quality of life.

​

We are an all-volunteer non-profit organization with no paid officers or staff.  We pride ourselves on retaining only 5% of donations for administrative costs. That means 95% of all donations are distributed directly to our program.

AAEF is a 501(c)(3)

With our housing crisis worsening every year, many seniors on a fixed income cannot even keep up with incremental rent increases, no matter how small, putting them out on our streets or in skilled nursing facilities where they don’t belong. Too many seniors have to choose which essentials to skip: food, medication, utility bills, or rent. With your help, Adopt an Elder Foundation can provide financial assistance to low income, high risk seniors that affords them safe housing, proper nutrition, and healthcare access so that they can maintain an appropriate degree of independence, dignity, and quality of life.

"As a clinical Social Worker over these many years, I have been constantly faced with tough situations that could be solved appropriately with adequate resources. But, currently, there are major deficits in the support network for elders and families facing difficult healthcare choices. Adopt an Elder is a SOLUTION to meet these difficult needs that are not currently met. It is pro-active, community-based, and focused on meeting these specific needs. I have been proud to support and assist the many adoptees AAEF has helped over the last 19 years"
