Transforming Lives Together

For 50 years, donors like you have helped older adults and people with disabilities receive meals, care, and the connection they critically need. Unfortunately, needs are increasing at a rapid rate. But you have the power to protect the dignity of elders through your donation.

Consider joining our 50 for 50 Challenge and learn how each $50 raised makes a big impact.

Imagine living in a rural community without access to the internet, trying to navigate complex systems to meet your basic needs. When Charles’ Social Security check was mistakenly routed to the wrong bank, he worried his only source of income vanished.

At the same time, Charles was battling cancer, and his medication cost over $100,000 a year. While Charles does have Medicare, his current prescription plan did not cover the medication, making it impossible for him to get vital care. Unsure where to turn, Charles reached out to JABA.

An Aging Services Coordinator helped him update his banking information so his Social Security benefits were restored. A JABA volunteer Insurance Counselor also identified a Medicare plan that lowered his prescription cost to just $28 for the entire year. Because of donors like you, together we can empower more people like Charles to get the benefits they’ve earned and the health care they deserve.

You can change lives. Consider making a donation to support vital services for older adults and caregivers.

Preparing For the Next 50

• By 2030, one out of four people in Central Virginia will be over 60 years old.

• Government and private funding are not keeping pace with needs.

• In Central Virginia, 24% of seniors live alone and 6% are in poverty (under $15,650 annually).

• 8,657 adults have a cognitive difficulty and 26,580 have a physical disability.

We need your help to fill the gaps so everyone can age where and how they want without worrying about their next meal or affording medical care.
