<div><strong>From Rapid Response to Reliable Support: Ensuring No Senior Goes Hungry</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Across our 92 independent and assisted living communities, AHEPA Senior Living provides safe, affordable housing for thousands of older adults. More than half of our residents—2,500 seniors—receive some form of food assistance.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When the recent federal shutdown disrupted nutrition programs, our donors responded immediately. Thanks to their swift generosity, we raised $100,000--including from our gofundme page--in rapid-response support. But even now, with the government reopened and SNAP benefits resuming, many older adults still face lingering uncertainty accessing the food programs they rely on every day.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>SNAP is navigating administrative backlogs and proposed program changes. Meanwhile, nonprofit meal providers—such as Meals on Wheels and congregate meals funded by the Older Americans Act (OAA)—remain severely underfunded. Many communities are facing long waitlists, limited capacity, and fewer resources than ever before.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>You’ll also see a short thank-you video from one of our residents, Jacqulene, whose message reminds us why this support matters so deeply.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From November 1 through December 31, 2025, every donation to this campaign goes directly toward food assistance for seniors affected by these lingering disruptions. Your gift will help us:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Assist residents waiting for delayed SNAP reinstatements
</li>
<li>Support strained community partners like Meals on Wheels
</li>
<li>Coordinate emergency resources where food banks remain depleted
</li>
<li>Ensure seniors at our communities have what they need this winter and holiday season
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your generosity fueled our rapid response.
</div>
<div>Now we’re focused on providing reliable support that brings stability, comfort, and peace of mind to residents who depend on us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please stand with us in this next phase.
</div>
<div>Donate today. Every dollar counts—and every act of kindness makes a difference.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your compassion and continued support.
