Care and Community<\/strong> go hand in hand as people age. As seniors grow older, they often need additional care, and that need is frequently paired with a desire for connection and stability within a supportive community. This can take many forms, from assisted living environments to programs that help seniors stay engaged, active, and supported. Providing that care and sense of belonging is a small way to give back for a lifetime of hard work and dedication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GrantWatch<\/strong><\/a> supports efforts that strengthen care and community for seniors by sharing grant opportunities designed to serve aging populations. GrantWatch currently lists more than 500 funding opportunities in its Aging and Seniors<\/strong><\/a> grant category, helping organizations find the resources they need to better support older adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grants, Fellowships, and In-Kind Care and Support for Seniors<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Grants for Horticultural and Gardening Activities<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Nonprofits for horticultural and gardening activities, with funding specifically supporting public botanical gardens and museums that enhance their services for senior citizens. Programs may include community gardening, healthy eating initiatives, and educational activities, all designed to bring communities together through horticulture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In-Kind Services of Dental Treatments<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

In-kind services of dental treatments to needy individuals in eligible regions who cannot otherwise afford treatment. Eligible applicants must be over 65 years old, or have a permanent disability, or be medically compromised. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grants to Advance the Oral Health<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Up to $2,500 to physician assistants, students, and organizations to create and implement a project to advance the oral health of patients. Special consideration will be given to projects benefiting vulnerable populations, including but not limited to homeless individuals, the elderly, and children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grants for Alzheimer’s Research<\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

In addition, grants to nonprofits and for-profit organizations, Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs), government agencies, school districts, Tribes, and faith-based organizations for AD research projects. The funding will be for studies addressing prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and care for AD and ADRD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grants to Enhance Community Quality of Life<\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Grants to nonprofits and government agencies to enhance the quality of life in local communities. Additionally, the funding supports programs in the areas of Alzheimer’s, aging, and community initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grants to Address Policy Issues for Older Adults<\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

There are grants to nonprofits and state-funded universities for projects benefiting older adults ages 65 and above. In fact, the funding will be for advocacy projects addressing policy issues nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grants for Training and Education to Work with Older Adults<\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

In addition, grants to nonprofits for professional training and education projects focusing on staff and personnel working with seniors. Eligible projects are those that have an impact nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grants for Services Supporting Holocaust Survivors<\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Grants to organizations to provide services for elderly Holocaust survivors. The funding will be for a range of services, including socialization programs, emergency assistance, health and medical services, transportation, food programs, case management, and homecare and housekeeping services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grants and In-Kind Support to <\/strong><\/a>Dementia<\/strong><\/a><\/strong> Researchers and Clinicians<\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, grants and in-kind support to scholars and clinicians affiliated with IHEs, nonprofits, businesses, and medical centers for ADRD research and development. The funding will be to develop digital biomarkers emerging from one or more symptom domains. Three stages of project awards are supported: exploratory awards, proof-of-principle awards, and validation awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
