Keeping loneliness at bay and promoting independence

Benevolent Care
Providing independence and dignity
Most of our long-term care residents have their care covered by Medicaid which does not offset the full cost of care. Additionally, the only $40 a month Personal Needs Allowance (PNA) Medicaid provides to residents is often not enough for them purchase items not included in their care. For many residents, loved ones can help close the financial gap. But for others without a support system, they face this challenge alone. Your gift helps residents maintain dignity and independence by helping them purchase essentials and small indulgences not allowed by Medicaid’s Personal Needs Allowance like stamps, a cell phone and monthly service, a haircut, favorite snacks, new clothing or a birthday gift for a grandchild.

We’ll use your gift, in coordination with our annual capital improvements budget, to make BIG changes and provide the best home for our residents. Give Now>
Memory Support Program
