About Old Friends Club
Old Friends Club (OFC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2015. Its original goal was to offer group activities for dementia patients in a rural area without memory care services. By 2020, OFC expanded its model to four metro-area respite programs, providing essential support to over 130 families.
However, a significant gap in dementia respite care persisted, remaining beyond OFC's reach. To bridge it, OFC created a free Toolkit and expansion plan to help organizations launch community-led OFC social respite programs—designed to support both individuals living with dementia and their caregivers.
Now the Old Friends Club Network, our team continues to bring hope and connection to the dementia community through its Toolkit, programming, training, and on-going support.
