Become a Pathkeeper
Keep the path open, every month
Pathkeepers are neighbors who give monthly so Pathways can say “yes” the moment a senior calls, even when the move can’t wait.
- Steady gifts let us plan crews and trucks ahead
- A short story each quarter from a move you helped fund
- Change, pause, or cancel any time
- Our first 100 become Founding Pathkeepers, named (with your OK) on our founders’ wall

Your gift at work
Where every dollar goes
Our board are volunteers, and our moving partner works for us at a reduced, below market rate, so more of your gift can go to moves.
- 80¢ moving help: crews, trucks, fuel, and supplies for seniors who can’t pay the full cost
- 12¢ volunteers: training, background checks, and safety gear
- 8¢ running the foundation: insurance, software, and the paperwork that keeps us accountable
Our goal This is a target, not a report. We’re a new foundation, and we’ll publish our real numbers every year on the Accountability page.

Tribute gifts
Give in honor of someone who carried you
Pathways began as a tribute to Anna Phillips. You can make your gift in honor or memory of a grandparent, a parent, or anyone who lifted you up. Tell us, and we’ll send a card to the person or family you name.
The greatest gift you can give is to lift others up when they need it most.
