This is a critical time for older adults. We need your help raising funds through Peer-to-Peer (https://www.jabacares.org/give-to-jaba) to ensure we are equipped to meet the surging needs:

- 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.
