CHAMPAIGN CALENDAR
Your Donation at CRIS Health Aging is a Blessing for Older Adults and/or Individuals Disabled (ages 18-59) and in Need of Help in both Champaign and Vermilion Counties.
With your donation to CRIS Healthy Aging, you support a local nonprofit organization that offers real help to those 60 plus (or people 18-59 who are disabled). Bring hope to older adults who are struggling in your community. Your donation will provide the following help:
$25 buys several meals for a hungry older adult.
$50 provides an active older adult with access to a Healthy Aging Class and materials.
$75 purchases a device to help an isolated older adult have face-to-face calls with family & friends.
$100 pays for a respite stay, so a caregiver can take a much needed break.
Thank you for your donation — and for being a blessing for our older population in both Champaign and Vermilion Counties.
