Human connection can save an older adult’s life in this heat. Last summer, more older adults died of heat related causes than any other group in our community. Many of them died alone, in their own homes, with no one to check on them.
PCOA provides connection in so many ways, but we cannot do it alone. We need you.
Will you make a gift today to keep your older neighbors safe and connected?
