Giving Tuesday will be celebrated in three weeks on Tuesday, December 3rd and we need you to join us to help care for our seniors, the fastest growing population in Georgia. 
Did you know that 75% of our patients are seniors and 40% live in poverty? 
• Your gift of $150 pays for one healthcare at home visit to an uninsured patient. 
• Many seniors are left alone and are unable to navigate resources like Medicaid and Medicare due to illiteracy. 
• On any given day, we help approximately 500 seniors navigate health insurance and during the months of waiting for insurance authorization we provide care in the home regardless of their ability to pay.
 Thank you for considering a gift today or on Giving Tuesday.
