🎉 Happy 120th Birthday, Maggie Kuhn! 🎉

Today we celebrate the bold, brilliant, and unstoppable founder of the Gray Panthers. Maggie fought ageism, injustice, and complacency—and she inspired generations to speak up, show up, and never back down.

🎥 Kicking off the Month of Maggie 🎉 “Maggie Kuhn had chutzpah in the very best sense of the word.” — Sen. Ron Wyden

First up: Senator Ron Wyden reflects on how Maggie inspired his life of public service—and why her legacy of fearless advocacy still matters today.

New look. Same fight. Stronger growl. 🐾 After 50 years of fighting for older adults, we're unveiling our bold new identity—and it perfectly captures who we are: intergenerational fighters creating a world where growing older means growing stronger.

Our new logo shows older and younger panthers moving together because this isn't about us vs. them. It's about us and future versions of us. Every person under 65 wants one day to be over 65. The fight for respect, dignity, and value for older adults? That's a fight for your future self.

We're the Gray Panthers. We're transforming the aging landscape through grit, determination, and the power of all generations united. Because aging isn't something that happens to "other people"—it's the destination we're all headed toward.

Time to make it a place worth reaching.

There’s nothing like getting the team together in person 💜 Gray Panthers NYC board members, volunteers, and supporters gathered for a Sunday lunch in NYC—sharing ideas, laughs, and our ongoing commitment to justice across generations. We missed those who couldn’t join us, and we even celebrated Maggie Kuhn’s 120th birthday a little early! Grateful for this passionate community working together to create change.

🚨 The “Big, Beautiful Bill”? More like the Gross, Greedy Bill. This disastrous legislation:

❌ Cuts Medicaid
❌ Slashes food aid (SNAP)
❌ Guts clean energy incentives
✅ Hands tax breaks to the wealthy

All at the expense of working families, the uninsured, and the climate.
