Social Security is for Everyone – And Philanthropy Plays An Important Role

Social Security turns 90 this year with nearly four generations of Americans rightfully counting on social security as a part of their economic plan. It is not just for older adults but also supports children and families in the event of disability and death. However, the program currently faces a long-term financing gap which, if unaddressed, will result in across-the-board benefit cuts of approximately 15 percent. There are workable solutions and this new survey from National Academy of Social Insurance, supported by RRF Foundation on Aging, tested vetted options to understand what components people most value, would like increased and could be decreased.

Join us on April 30, 2025 at 1pm ET where together we will discuss:

  • Outcomes of the National Academy of Social Insurance survey and,
  • Next steps for philanthropy to ensure Social Security continues with its 90 year record of not missing a payment.
