The Philanthropic Perspective<br />
Your gifts are a tangible expression of your belief that long life is a blessing.<br />
They show your support for older adults to live well. Whether you make a<br />
small donation in honor or memory of a loved one, or include PHS in your<br />
estate, every gift makes a difference. We value your commitment and<br />
contribution to the PHS mission. Thank you.<br />
Your gifts to <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> Foundation<br />
may be designated for the following funds:<br />
Where the Need is Greatest Fund<br />
Allows PHS, with Board approval, to allocate funds where they are<br />
most needed to enrich the lives of older adults. This may include the<br />
ability to do things, such as remodeling a community space, planting<br />
gardens, introducing a new program as well as covering some<br />
unexpected expenses.<br />
Benevolence Fund<br />
Supports residents to help them remain in a PHS community even<br />
when they have outlived their financial resources.<br />
Chaplains and Spiritual Life Fund<br />
Provides access to spiritual care for every resident, regardless of<br />
faith persuasions, through chaplains, trained volunteer spiritual care<br />
providers and spiritual programs. Many residents say that this is one<br />
of the most important aspects of living in a PHS community.<br />
Consider making a gift to benefit older adults served<br />
