Description
Founded in 1999 as Civic Ventures, Encore.org has cultivated a diverse, intergenerational network of older adults and youth that are tackling social problems and bridging cultural divides. Encore.org has connected thousands of older adults with social sector organizations and helped them develop deeper connections at the community level. This has enabled organizations across the country to confront deep-seated challenges that may benefit from intergenerational knowledge sharing and community building. With Corporation support, Encore.org will expand its network of nonprofit partners in the social sector.
