Around the world, millions of older adults are losing access to the basics of a dignified life: a safe place to sleep, regular meals, medical care, and human connection. For elderly women especially, the situation is dire many face homelessness, isolation, and neglect with no one to turn to.
Traditional charity models struggle with these challenges because they rely on unpredictable, one-time funding. When the money runs out, shelters close, healthcare stops, and vulnerable people are turned away.
1Earth is building something different: a community-powered, sustainable model that provides consistent, year-round care. We don't just respond to crises we prevent them.
