Third Act Initiative

All hands on deck!

The stakes are rising. With the 2026 midterms ahead and threats mounting against nonprofits like ours, Third Act needs funding we can count on—support that no administration can scare away.


Right now, 13 staff support more than 130,000 volunteers nationwide. That’s a ratio of 10,000 to 1. Monthly gifts help us expand our organizing team, train volunteers, and respond quickly when the heat is on.


We’ve launched All Hands on Deck to bring in 400 new monthly donors by October 31. And thanks to generous supporters, every new or increased monthly gift will be matched up to $100,000.


👉 To make your gift count toward the match, be sure to select “Make it monthly” on the donation form.


Your steady support will help Third Act defend democracy, protect the climate, and keep elders leading the way—no matter what comes next.
