Why your support matters

Many families face the difficult and costly decision of placing a loved one in a nursing home, often under emotional and financial strain.

LifePath offers a compassionate, cost-effective alternative. Through social connection, nutrition services and caregiver respite, we help older adults live safely at home and close to family for as long as possible. Support from individuals, businesses and foundations makes this work possible.

Our shared vision

Our vision is a community where older adults and families can access the support and resources they need to navigate aging with dignity.

You can help make this vision a reality by donating essential items, offering in-kind services, volunteering or making a financial contribution to LifePath.
