In 1994, Lori and Paul Hogan founded Home Instead Senior Care®, an international company of independently owned and operated franchises, to provide non-medical care for seniors.  As a means to further enhance the lives of older adults, going above and beyond the scope of this organization, The Home Instead Senior Care Foundation was founded in 2003.

A major goal of this non-profit foundation is to provide the financial support of activities designed to improve the quality of life for seniors.  Such opportunities may include research and development, education, scholarships, and/or advocacy for the health and well being of older adults.  Other programs might be designed to reduce the isolation experienced by so many seniors and promote community inclusion.
