Provide a Lifeline to Vulnerable Older Adults Facing a Financial Crisis
The Resident Emergency Help Fund assists older adults in their time of need with a utility bill, medical prescription, ambulance ride, or a pair of glasses.
Older adults living on fixed incomes of less than $16,590 annually, or $1,382 per month, struggle to pay for basic necessities. Too often, older adults with very low incomes are forced to pick between food and their life-saving medications, a choice no one should have to make.
The Resident Emergency Help Fund is solely donor funded and relies on the continuous support of generous donors to keep the fund open to older adults. Your support is a lifeline to those who live paycheck to paycheck. Thank you!
In 2022, we distributed over
$19,000 to 71 residents at PVM Villages
Since the fund opened in 2011,
we have distributed over $115,000 to 500 residents
