Our houses were built in the 1970s and 1980s, for residents who were younger and more mobile than they are today. These are their homes, not facilities, and we want everyone to be able to stay in them, alongside their long-time friends, for as long as possible.
Right now, something as simple as a warm shower can be a struggle. Stepping over the side of a bathtub is hard for many of our residents, and risky for some. Our goal is to replace every tub-and-shower combination in our homes with a walk-in or roll-in shower. It’s a big project, and your gift helps make it possible.
