The Charles H. Farnsworth Trust, established in 1930, aims to support older adults in living with dignity and independence. The Trust focuses on the development of affordable housing and support services for older adults, with a preference for those in need residing in the Greater Boston area. The operating and program grants typically range from $10,000 to $25,000 and support various services for older adults, such as healthcare, homemaker assistance, and nutritional support. Additionally, grants can be used for research, planning, and communication to enhance housing and support services. Applications are due by November 15, with notifications of grant decisions by the end of March.
