About Agency on Agingarea 4
Agency on AgingArea 4 funds the infrastructure older adults depend on to stay nourished, mobile, connected, and safe in seven Northern California counties. Its largest recent award, $5,842,795 to MOW by ACC in Sacramento, shows the scale of its meal and service-delivery contracts, while repeat support for organizations such as Seniors First in Auburn and Del Oro in Citrus Heights points to an established network of county-level partners. The foundation’s grantmaking is built around direct services and public-program administration, including Older Americans Act and related funding streams. The agency’s recent grants also show a strong emphasis on benefits navigation and aging-services coordination. In Sacramento, it supported Lsnc with more than $1.1 million in 2024 and another large award in 2023, reflecting sustained support for services tied to HICAP and MIPPA. Other awards reach providers serving older adults and people with disabilities in communities such as Grass Valley, Nevada City, Truckee, and Davis. Across these grants, the pattern is less about one-off philanthropy than about maintaining service systems that older adults use regularly.

It gave $304,083 in 2023 and $298,221 in 2024 to FREED Center for Independent Living in Nevada City for Area Plan, CARES, MIPPA, and vaccine-related work. In Davis, Yhaa received $192,688 in 2023 and $163,131 in 2024 for Area Plan, ADRC, Vaccines, and CARES. Falls prevention and home safety appear as another focus. Rebuilding Together in Sacramento received $154,505 in 2024 for Area Plan and Dignity Falls, linking the agency’s funding to aging in place and safety at home.
