As we celebrate Older Americans Month this May, The Sarah Ralston Foundation invites you to join our annual fundraiser in support of Philadelphia’s older adult population.
Our mission is simple yet vital: to enhance the quality of life for vulnerable, underserved older adults living in Philadelphia County.
Every day, older adults in our community face growing challenges — from food and housing insecurity to limited access to quality healthcare, and the very real impacts of loneliness and social isolation. These issues are often compounded by behavioral health challenges, cognitive decline, and a lack of coordinated care.
That’s where you come in.
By supporting our May Fundraiser, you’ll help fund community-based organizations that provide essential services — from nutritious meals and housing assistance to wellness programs, advocacy, and opportunities for meaningful connection.
Whether it’s ensuring a safe place to live, supporting caregivers, improving health access, or simply offering companionship, your gift makes a direct and lasting impact in the lives of our city’s older adults.
This May, join us in flipping the script on aging. Together, we can affirm the dignity of aging, celebrate the contributions of older adults, and build a more equitable future — one where every senior can thrive.
