Paying for life’s day-to-day necessities later in life can be difficult, especially when you’re no longer working full time. The good news is there’s a whole host of senior programs across the country that provide funding for older people. Support is available in a range of areas, such as medication, transport, food, utilities, and housing. BenefitsCheckUp is a handy website that lets you see what programs are available in your area and find out if you’re eligible.
Access to healthcare is essential at any age, especially as you grow older. Medicare Interactive provides a wealth of information, providing you with everything you need to know about Medicare. This includes eligibility, how to enroll, what’s covered, and what your rights and protections are related to Medicare. You can also find information about other programs for people with lower incomes.
The Village to Village Network is an organization that sets up “villages” — local communities of volunteers who offer services for the elderly. They facilitate health and wellness workshops, social activities, and practical help like home repairs and access to transportation. A sense of community and belonging is so important at times when we need a little more support. Check the Village to Village website to see if there’s a “village” near you.
Many seniors want to continue living in their homes but have difficulty getting to the grocery store or cooking their own meals. Meals on Wheels is a well-known senior program where friendly volunteers deliver healthy meals to your house. As well as providing nutritional meals and making things easier, it also offers daily social interaction. The service is available on a sliding scale, so you’ll pay what you can afford. If you can’t pay, you can receive meals for free.
The National Aging in Place Council provides support and advice to help the elderly continue living in their homes as long as possible. Sometimes, a little additional help in certain areas is all you need to remain living at home. The Age in Place website has an extensive database of services for the elderly to help you do this, from legal and financial to practical support. You can search by location to find providers in your area. They also have articles offering advice and run local chapter events.

As you age, you might think about what kind of medical care you’d like to receive if you become terminally ill and cannot express your wishes. Advance directives are legal documents stating your medical care wishes if you become ill but are incapacitated. This website contains links to PDF versions for different states so you can see what an advance directive includes in your state.

There are special provisions for aging U.S. veterans, so you should check what support is available to you as a vet. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs has a whole host of resources listed on their website, from home and community support to mental health and medical care.
The ACME Awards is our premier fundraising event, designed to honor the exceptional contributions of community trailblazers. This initiative is pivotal in garnering the essential funds needed to guarantee the sustenance and growth of our vital programs for the aging population. Your contribution will make a difference.
