Giving Opportunities for Homestead Village
Since its beginning, the Homestead Village community and its residents have benefited from a tradition of caring and generosity. At every important moment, residents, grateful family members, community members, and staff at Homestead Village have expressed their appreciation through financial contributions and donations.
We invite you to join us as we seek to enhance and secure the future of one of the Life Plan Communities (formerly known as a Continuing Care Retirement Community or CCRC) in Pennsylvania. We believe that a well-managed and growing endowment fund will provide exciting opportunities to upgrade our facility, develop and train staff, and ensure the financial security of our residents.
A contribution to the Homestead Village Endowment Fund has many benefits:
- Acknowledges the level of care that you or a loved one have received
- Continues the good work that is being done
- Provides for new services
- Makes a difference in our community
- Creates an enduring legacy that will influence succeeding generations
Homestead Village has established the Endowment Fund program to strengthen the financial well-being of our nonprofit community and to ensure our ability to provide financial security to each and every resident, even if they outlive their financial assets. Your gifts and pledges can be made in a variety of ways, and we greatly appreciate your thoughtful consideration.
