Give Today and Help Arlington Seniors Age in Place with Dignity

ANV’s Discounted Membership Program helps people with limited incomes age in place safely.

Arlington Neighborhood Village is part of Arlington’s essential safety net. We provide rides to medical appointments, help with grocery shopping, deliver food from AFAC, offer friendly visits and walking companionship to hundreds of older adults in Arlington.

When Safety Nets Fray, Community Matters More Than Ever

In Arlington, many seniors live on fixed incomes, far from family, facing daily challenges that make aging in place difficult. Across the country, essential programs that help older adults—Medicaid, food assistance, home care—are being reduced or restructured.

For our neighbors, these changes aren’t abstract. They are daily realities.

We’re raising $60,000 to sustain our Financial Aid Fund, which ensures no Arlington senior is turned away because of income. Forty-five percent of ANV members have lower incomes and receive significantly discounted memberships through our Financial Aid Fund.

Great News! Matching Gifts Available:

Longtime supporter Liz Harter is matching donations up to $10,000 

Your gift doubles in impact!

“I watched my parents grow older in Los Angeles and was inspired by their social involvement and the assistance they received from nearby friends. Although their neighborly actions seemed small—changing a high-up lightbulb, walking through a local park, sipping tea in the afternoon—they showed me the kind of community I want to age in.

That’s why I give to Arlington Neighborhood Village. After four decades here, I’ve seen the important role ANV plays—nurturing the soul while providing hands-on help within a caring community. I hope you’ll join me in making this special kind of support available to even more of our neighbors.” -Liz Harter
