"The Graying of America"

"The Silver Tsunami"


There are many ways to describe the unprecedented demographic shift America is experiencing. The facts are quite simple - the population of seniors is on the rise, while the number of qualified nurses, caregivers, and health care professionals is on the decline.

Established in 2008, the Family & Nursing Care Foundation, a fund of The Community Foundation for Montgomery County, will help people who cannot always help themselves, working to address two vital needs in the community.

The population of seniors is on the rise, while the number of qualified nurses, caregivers, and health care professionals is on the decline.

Our Primary Goals are to Support

  1. Community organizations that provide low-income seniors with the dedicated home care they need to remain in the safety and comfort of their own homes.
  2. Homecare training programs for those special individuals who want to learn the skills needed to become nurses and nursing assistants so that they may care for our elderly population.
