Jimmy Carter, a one-term U.S. president who dedicated his time after the White House to widespread humanitarian work, has died at age 100.

On Feb. 18, 2023, The Carter Center ― a charity founded by the former president ― announced that after a “series of short hospital stays,” Carter would begin receiving hospice care at home “instead of additional medical intervention.” On Nov. 17, the Center announced his wife Rosalynn Carter had also entered hospice care after previously being diagnosed with dementia. She died two days later. Despite being in hospice, Carter appeared at her funeral.
On May 14, 2024, Carter’s grandson Jason, the chair of The Carter Center, said the former president was nearing the end of his life.
“He really is, I think, coming to the end that, as I’ve said before, there’s a part of this faith journey that is so important to him,” he said. “And there’s a part of that faith journey that you only can live at the very end. And I think he has been there in that space.”
