You live. You learn. You give back. No one knows this better than people ages 50 and older who have spent decades accumulating a wealth of knowledge that only life experience can bring. From working to prevent school violence, providing necessities for kids to be school ready and healthy to helping individuals with disabilities acquire assistive technology devices, these nonprofits founders over 50 are helping to create a better future for us all. AARP is honored to award the AARP Purpose Prize, the only national award to celebrate nonprofit founders 50 and over who are pursuing their purpose to make a difference in their community and around the world. Meet this year’s winners: www.aarp.org/purposeprize
