WHAT WILL THE FINAL YEARS OF YOUR LIFE LOOK LIKE?

Not everyone gets to choose.

Many don’t get to leave a mark.

They don’t get to be remembered.

They don’t even get to be held.

In the final chapter of life, most elders experience one thing above all:

silence.

A Quiet Crisis, Unfolding in Real Time

  • In America, elders are institutionalized and forgotten.
  • In Cambodia, caregiving traditions are disappearing by the hour.
  • Globally, women are carrying 3 generations of care with no pay and no recognition.

And the systems built to solve it?

They’re too slow.

This Is the Generation That Can Change That

CHEA was born with urgency — not to wait for change, but to build it ourselves.

We don’t have decades.

We have mothers dying without thank-you’s

We have grandmothers whose wisdom is dying with them

We have a system collapsing at both ends of life.

But we also have you.

Legacy Is Not What You Leave Behind.

It’s what you protect while you’re still here.

At CHEA, legacy means:

  • Funding a caregiver who will carry someone with grace
  • Preserving a cultural ritual that would otherwise vanish
  • Giving your name to something that outlives you with dignity

What Happens If We Wait?

❌ More elders die thinking no one cared.
❌ More women pass care skills without ever getting paid.
❌ Another generation inherits a broken system.

But if we act now…

  • We rewrite how the world ends for millions of elders.
  • We give care back its name, and caregivers back their lives.
  • We make memory sacred again.

The Time to Fund This Is Now.

Before the wisdom fades.

Before the stories are buried.

Before another woman dies invisible.

You don’t have to fund everything.

You just have to choose not to look away.

“Dignity isn’t lost all at once. It disappears one unthanked caregiver at a time.”
