Did you know that the median age of the U.S. population rose from 30.0 to 38.9 years between 1980 and 2022? Or that there were nearly 58 million Americans aged 65 and older in the U.S., accounting for 17.3% of the population? This demographic is expected to grow by 47%, reaching 82 million by 2050.
American senior citizens are largely self-sufficient, handling daily tasks with independence. However, they still appreciate and benefit from the care and love of family and community. And that is exactly what National Senior Citizens Day (August 21) sets to do.
National Senior Citizens Day was established by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 and is observed to honor the contributions and wisdom of our elders. It’s a day to show appreciation and gratitude for their lasting impact on our communities.
