Impact of Your Support on "Help Older Adults"

Hello,

Thank you for your generous support of Jake’s Network of Hope’s project, Help Older Adults Enjoy Quality Life, Community.

Incontinence affects 1 in 3 adults, with older adults most at risk. But it's more than a physical condition, and often brings shame, depression, and fear of leaving home. Prolonged moisture exposure can also lead to infections and other serious health complications.

In Wisconsin, nearly 1 in 10 seniors live below the Federal Poverty Line, making the cost of incontinence supplies an ongoing burden. Without access to this basic need, many older adults face a significant decline in both physical health and emotional well-being.

That’s where our Adult Care Essentials project makes a difference.

Through a robust network of community partners across Eastern Wisconsin, we distribute free incontinence products to seniors in need, relieving financial stress, reducing health risks, and restoring dignity. We listen closely to our partners and recipients to better understand the realities they face and adapt our efforts to meet them where they are.

No one should be isolated or ashamed because they can’t afford essential care.

Thanks to your support, older adults in our community are able to stay active, connected, and confident. Your continued partnership helps us ensure no one is left behind.

 

With gratitude,


Kate Gargo
Development Manager - Jake’s Network of Hope
