Why should you choose to become a CHAMPION?

CHAMPIONS are essential supporters meeting the needs of the community.

Funding for critical support services that MANY seniors rely on has not kept up with demand; Aging Ahead is asking for the community’s help.

1 in 8 Missouri seniors face hunger and food insecurity; Aging Ahead delivers meals to over 4,200 individuals every day.

Many of the 38 million unpaid family caregivers in the US, including some of your employees, are facing extreme fatigue, including physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion from the long-term care they provide to a loved one with a chronic illness, disability, or aging-related condition. Aging Ahead’s Family Caregiver Support Program provides support, services, advocacy, and resources to help care for the caregiver.

Employees prefer to work for an employer with a strong sense of ‘giving back’ to the community. Aging Ahead offers many ways for individuals, businesses, and organizations to help us support older adults in St. Louis, St. Charles, Franklin, and Jefferson counties.
