Public funding for services to seniors has not kept pace with the increase in number and longevity of older adults. More so now than ever, many seniors need help with nutrition, transportation, health services and housing. The FOUNDATION ON AGING provides the ideal vehicle for private citizens, businesses, and philanthropic organizations to collaborate with the Riverside County Office on Aging to respond to the diverse programmatic needs of older adults. You may be surprised to learn that the senior population is projected to more than double by 2030.

The Foundation supports its work through donations and gifts. With your help, older adults who are vulnerable, at risk, and who may also be homebound, will be sure to receive the support to age with dignity, respect and independence.
Won’t you please help us protect seniors from the problems that can result from poor nutrition, lack of transportation and isolation?
Your contributions will directly help seniors in need. Work with us to strengthen, expand, and support senior programs.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY POPULATION PROJECTIONS
Riverside County is one of six California counties projected to experience a nearly 250% increase in adults ages 65 and older between 2010 and 2060. During this time, the number of older adults age 85+ is expected to increase by 700%, placing Riverside County amongst the six counties with the largest older adult population growth rates in California.
Also as of 2019, Riverside County is amongst the top three of the ten Counties in Southern California with the highest older adult population. According to the 2020 Census, the County’s population of adults 65 and older was approximately 366,000, or 14.8% of the total population. This number is projected to almost double by 2030, and almost triple by 2060 when the senior population is projected to reach 908,500.
The Department of Finance also projects that by the mid-2030’s, for the first time in United States history, the number of seniors 65+ will outnumber children under 18 years of age.
