Abstract
Foundations, including those that fund in the field of aging, are facing challenging times due to the economic downturn. This article discusses recent factors affecting foundations, examines their responses to the recession, and highlights foundation efforts to address aging issues by funding research that identifies salient financial problems, programs that help older Americans address or prevent financial vulnerability, and advocacy that addresses such problems.
