(Family Features)--Whether you're a senior yourself, have a senior loved one or are simply a senior advocate, consider these simple ways you can help the aging population by taking action and learning about issues impacting seniors:- Lend your voice. Be an advocate for change in public actions and medical research for the aging society. If you're an expert by experience, share your knowledge about senior-related issues and public policy measures.
- Give from your heart. Less than 1 percent of charitable donations go to organizations that help seniors. Find senior-focused non-profits to give your next charitable donations to, such as one dedicated to raising awareness, inspiring change and accelerating progress in Alzheimer's care and research.
- Get prepared to care. Educate yourself on issues that impact seniors and complete small acts of kindness for seniors in your life.
- Give your time. Volunteer with local non-profit organizations that help seniors or offer support related to senior-affiliated issues.
