We’re excited to announce that seven organizations throughout Iowa will receive a combined $75,506 in 2025 AARP Community Challenge grants. The grants are part of AARP’s $4.2 million commitment to fund 383 quick-action projects nationwide aimed at making communities more livable for people of all ages.
Advocating on behalf of Iowans age 50+ and giving you a voice at the State Capitol is a top priority for AARP Iowa. During the 2025 legislative session, we engaged on several bills with wide-ranging impacts related to housing, consumer protections, utilities, and more.

Looking for a fun, informative, and family-friendly outing this summer? Join AARP Florida at the Museum of Discovery and Science for a day of exploration, entertainment, and valuable resources.
Coconut Grove, a historic neighborhood in Miami-Dade County, is home to one of this year’s AARP Community Challenge Grant winners: Friends of the Commodore Trail. This five-and-a-half-mile nature trail has been a popular place for walking, biking, and socializing. However, it’s also much more to the community – this trail connects 13 parks and 12 schools, is a wildlife corridor, and gives neighbors a way to meet each other.
Looking forward to seeing our volunteers, celebrating this year's award winners and much more.
