I was looking for ways to help my wife, but I found connection and culture, too.

United Way helped Premji care for his wife and alleviate the loneliness he felt when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.    

He found an adult day program, but what he didn’t expect was to also discover a community for himself.  

When you donate to United Way East Ontario, your gift will help seniors by: 
  • Expanding remote and in-person day programs.

  • Connecting seniors living in rural communities who need transportation and companionship.

  • Improving access to healthy food and basic needs.

  • Strengthening key supports for informal caregivers, who play a critical role in our healthcare system.
