About Usaging
Usaging centers its grantmaking on the national aging network, with awards that repeatedly support Area Agencies on Aging, Title VI Native American Aging Programs, and related service providers. The largest recent grant in the dataset went to Autism Society of America for $3,629,421, showing support for services that reach older adults and caregivers through specialized community-based partners. Other large awards include Coalition for Independent Living Options Inc at $1,627,250 and Asian Media Access at $1,350,000, both illustrating the range of organizations it funds within aging services. The foundation’s public profile emphasizes older adults, people with disabilities, and caregivers, and its grant categories align with that mission through direct service, programmatic support, and local implementation. Its active funds and awards point to a structure that includes capacity-building support, disaster relief, dementia-friendly work, and recognition programs for leadership and innovation. Recent grants also show repeated support for the same grantees across 2024 and 2025, suggesting ongoing relationships rather than isolated gifts. In practice, Usaging appears to back organizations that deliver aging services, strengthen local systems, and test models that can be shared across the network.
What Usaging Funds
Aging services are the clearest throughline in Usaging’s grantmaking. The foundation awarded $961,300 to Disability Advocacy Center in 2025 and $861,300 in 2024, both under a services-for-the-aging grant, indicating sustained support for local disability and aging work. It also funds transportation, independence, and community support. In 2024, Living Independently for Today & Tomorrow received $626,885, while Southeastern Illinois Area Agency on Aging received $520,720 in both 2024 and 2025. Usaging’s portfolio also includes health and specialized support. American Society of Consultant Pharmacists received $1,244,700 for services for the aging, and University of Montana received $968,697 in 2024. These grants sit alongside awards to organizations working in dementia, nutrition, housing, and workforce development through the broader aging network.
