About us
The Aging With Dignity Foundation comprises families, donors, and volunteers who contribute their time and resources to enhance the lives of older adults.
Our origins
Dr. Ángela María Valdés Bernal (1963- 2021)
Surgeon, Specialist in Homeopathic Therapeutics, Specialist in Family Medicine, Master's Degree in Social Gerontology
When in our Foundation we look for a benchmark of dedication, discipline, honesty, empathy, professionalism, and silent generosity; we turned our gaze to Dr. Ángela María, she from a deep spiritual search, allowed herself to be mobilized in the face of the complexity of population aging, recognizing it as an imminent reality and little visible at the time, which challenges us as a society to give novel and relevant responses.
Her deep love for the Elderly launched her on the adventure of creating a Foundation, making Gerontological Knowledge not a privilege of a few and where Older Adults in vulnerable situations were accompanied to improve their quality of life and be seen with love and respect. In his memory and following his legacy, we walk as a Foundation in the search to dignify the role of the Elderly in society and offer them a protective environment where they can have a better quality of life.
