Community Perspective: Supporting Clara with Transitional Housing and a Scooter.
“For vulnerable seniors that we help through our Age Better grant, a scooter we provide represents more than just a mode of transportation. It symbolizes freedom, dignity, and the unwavering support of a caring community. Thank you HelpAge Canada!” — Nipa, Seniors Services Society of British Columbia
Thanks to donor support, older adults like Clara in British Columbia are able to remain connected to their communities and live safely at home.

Community Perspective: Medical Attention & Personal Care After Flooding in Pakistan.
“We’ve faced a lot of problems. Our house was swept away. After the flood, we had a fever and skin conditions, and we couldn’t get any supplies. Now doctors have visited us and we are getting medicine, for free. HelpAge even gave me a comforter, a pillow, and two containers for clean water.” — Shah Murad, 72, Mirpur, Pakistan
Through our global partners with expert local teams on the ground, and trusted relationships that empower communities and local residents, the HelpAge network tackles crises strategically, with proven recovery solutions and locally, with dignity and personal care.
