Will you help older people living through crisis and disaster around the world?
The world is becoming less predictable. Disasters and conflict are affecting more people than ever before and it often hits older people the hardest, yet their needs can be overlooked or ignored.
Farida, a grandmother from Syria, was forced to flee her home when earthquakes struck the country. Thanks to donations from generous supporters like you, she was able to receive ongoing medical support from our mobile health units for her heart disease.
She told us, “The health team are providing great medical support. They have truly given us hope. I dream that one day I will return to my home.”
How your donation could help older people
Your kind donation could help ensure that older people living through a crisis or disaster have access to the tailored support they need. This could include:
- Mobile health clinics for older people to receive health care close to home
- Food kits tailored to the nutritional needs of older people
- Assistive products such as walking sticks and glasses
- Community safe spaces and mental health support
We can’t do it without people like you. Please donate today to help ensure older people's needs are not forgotten.

Age International is raising money for our Crisis Appeal, to support our work with older people and their families affected by crisis around the world. Donation examples are representative of the assistance that older people could receive. Any income not spent after twelve months past the end of the appeal may be allocated to another emergency situation that requires our support.
