Government Outreach:
Contact Your Representatives:
• Monthly emails to congresspeople about NIH aging research funding
• Attend town halls and ask about longevity research support
• Write letters to local newspapers about aging research importance
• Submit comments on relevant government health initiatives

Sample Scripts:
Email to Congress: "As your constituent, I urge you to increase NIH funding for aging research. Currently less than 1% of the health budget goes to aging research, despite aging being the root cause of most diseases. Investing in longevity research could save trillions in healthcare costs while giving Americans more healthy years. Please support increased funding for the National Institute on Aging."

To a Local or National Representative

Dear [Representative Name],

I am writing as a concerned citizen and supporter of the Conquer Aging Now Alliance (CANALL), a nonprofit dedicated to advancing longevity science and healthier aging for all.

Despite remarkable progress in understanding and treating age-related diseases, less than 1% of our nation’s health research funding is dedicated to aging repair and reversal. Given that aging is the root cause of many chronic illnesses, increasing support for this research could unlock longer, healthier lives and reduce the healthcare burden for millions.

I urge you to champion greater federal investment in aging and longevity research. Please help make this a national priority—our families, communities, and future generations will benefit from your leadership.

Thank you for your time and for your commitment to public health.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[Your City/State]

To a Newspaper or Media Outlet

To the Editor,

Aging is the single greatest risk factor for most chronic diseases, yet it receives only a fraction of national research funding. The time has come to recognize aging as a treatable condition and support efforts to conquer it.

I am part of the Conquer Aging Now Alliance (CANALL), a nonprofit advocating for increased investment in longevity science. Recent advances in gene editing, stem cell therapies, and cellular repair have the potential to radically improve quality of life and extend healthy years.

I urge your publication to shed light on the promise of aging research and the need for greater public and private support. Together, we can build a healthier future for all.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[Your Town]

To a University Science Department

Dear [Department Chair/Professor Name],

I am writing on behalf of the Conquer Aging Now Alliance (CANALL), a nonprofit focused on raising awareness about longevity science and the treatment of aging as a disease.

We are inspired by your department’s commitment to advancing biomedical research and urge you to consider collaborating with CANALL in advocating for increased funding and student engagement in aging research. The impact of breakthroughs in cellular repair, gene editing, and regenerative medicine is profound—not only for science, but for society as a whole.

Would you be willing to share information about our educational resources or events with your students? We would also welcome opportunities to support your outreach efforts.

Thank you for your leadership in science and education.

Best regards,
[Your Name]
CANALL Volunteer
