We give because giving is a powerful way to seek to connect—with others, with our values, and with the legacy we hope to leave behind. For those 55 and older, giving often becomes more than generosity; it’s a meaningful expression of purpose and belonging. Whether it's time, wisdom, or resources, each gift strengthens bonds with family, community, and causes close to the heart. In giving, we rediscover connection—not just to others, but to the parts of ourselves that still long to make a difference.
