Many families face the difficult and costly decision of placing a loved one in a nursing home, often constrained by financial and emotional challenges.
LifePath offers a compassionate, cost-effective alternative. Through socialization opportunities, nutrition services and caregiver respite, we help older adults to live comfortably at home and close to their families for as long as possible. Support from individuals, businesses and foundations is essential to sustaining these programs and helping to keep our older neighbors connected, healthy and safe.
Our hope is for a community where older adults and families can access the support and resources they need to navigate the aging process 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.
