The two-year, $7.5 million gift that the Samueli Foundation gave to three Orange County nonprofits this month – all for the purpose of keeping people from slipping into homelessness – is a lot of things. It’s big money for three small-ish local charities. It’s a model of simplicity in the sometimes byzantine world of charitable giving.

Not so long ago, Lillian Kahan would’ve been an oddity. She’s 104 years old (“104 and a half,” she corrects), and, until recently, a life of such length was a statistical quirk, rare enough to warrant news coverage or scientific research or at least a cupcake at the local senior center. These days that’s only half true. Kahan’s age still makes news, and scientists increasingly are interested in people like her. She still gets the odd cupcake. But the attention isn’t coming because she’s so uncommon.
