There are times when we all need a trusted guide. I really found that to be true when I was helping my mom care for my dad last year, and I felt overwhelmed navigating memory care, hospital ER visits and a rehab center after he fell and broke his hip. Thanks to working at AgeWell, I knew where to find trusted guidance and resources, but far too many older adults and caregivers don't.

My family caregiving experience made me realize again how vital AgeWell is as a local, trusted nonprofit - coming alongside older adults and caregivers who need expert guidance and compassionate support navigating the challenges of aging and caregiving.

The fact is that we're all aging, and we'll all be caregivers if we aren't already. That's why I'd like to invite you to support our work at AgeWell as we come alongside older adults and caregivers across Middle Tennessee. Your support:

  • provides our Directory of Services to thousands of older adults and caregivers, improving access to needed services,
  • provides trusted guidance through our Helpline and Eldercare Coach program, reassuring our neighbors that they're not alone and connecting them to vital resources,
  • enables us to address unmet needs and advocate for needed solutions like affordable housing, caregiver support and stronger home and community based services, and
  • helps us convene partner agencies and offer financial empowerment services to older Nashvillians through the RESET collaborative with AgeWell serving as the backbone agency.

Thank you for joining me in building a better community where none of us - as we grow older and care for our aging loved ones -have to face our challenges alone!
