Incontinence might seem like a silent problem, but that’s likely only if you’re not the one suffering from it. For people dealing with incontinence, it can control them every day – especially without the right protection.
Our Adult Care Essentials (A.C.E.) program recognizes this silent need and provides incontinence products to partner nonprofits that serve seniors in need. We have a lot of local partners serving Northeast Wisconsin, but we also stretch across the United States and around the globe.
In Puerto Rico, an elderly woman was sent home “hopeless,” after a devastating aggressive cancer diagnosis and not much hope for life the received products from our A.C.E. program for some relief during this difficult time, and one year later was still beating the odds.
Also in a Puerto Rican monastery, Jake’s supplied 3 bed-ridden nuns with incontinence products from this program. It’s important that all these individuals continue to live with dignity, no matter the circumstances.
There are more seniors suffering in silence who need your help. Consider a donation to our ACE program today, just $12 provides a month supply to someone in need.
