ST. PAUL’S EXPANDS VISION WITH PACE
St. Paul’s Senior Homes & Services has the opportunity to offer
additional innovative services to meet the needs of the older adult
population of San Diego. We will do this by establishing a PACE
(Program for All Inclusive Care for the Elderly) program to serve
frail and medically needy seniors in the surrounding area. The PACE
model’s goal is to maximize each participant’s autonomy, encourage

medically frail seniors. We do not have the space to do so on our
present campus. There are more than 32,000 seniors in the seven contiguous zip codes surrounding Balboa Park. More than
8,000 of that number are categorized as low-income elderly, and more than 10,000 are older than 80 years of age.
The nationally recognized PACE model was developed by On Lok Health Services in San Francisco 25 years ago, and has
been replicated nationwide. It is now a permanent provider of health care service to the frail elderly under Medicare and allows
states the option to pay for PACE services under Medicaid. Community Eldercare of San Diego (CESD) will be the San Diego
provider of PACE services and programs. CESD is a separately incorporated non-profit corporation, under the auspices of St.
Paul’s Episcopal Home, Inc., and is dedicated to serving seniors in our area who can benefit from these case management
services.
Therefore, the St. Paul’s Home and Foundation Boards have approved conducting a Capital Campaign to purchase property to
house the PACE services. Our goal is to secure three million in cash and pledges, plus two million in planned gifts over a threeyear
period. The campaign will be conducted in two phases: in Phase I, we will solicit gifts and pledges based on the vision of
the provision of additional services for the frail elderly of San Diego; Phase II will
begin as soon as we find a particular piece of property for our expansion.

News of St. Robert M. Paul’s Piegari is the new Retirem
PERSPECTIVE
In the late 1950’s Harold B. Robinson, rector of St.
Paul’s Church looked out into his parish community and
became aware of a tremendous need. He recognized that
many of the elderly in his community were reclusive,
were not involved, had poor diets, and little social
interaction. With this recognition came a vision to meet
the needs of the elderly that has, over the last 40 years,
become St. Paul’s Senior Homes & Services.
Today we continue to follow his vision by recognizing
the needs of the elderly in the San Diego community and
expanding our services to meet them. One tremendous
need that we have recognized is the large number of
fragile and medically underserved seniors who live in
San Diego.
We have made a commitment to serve these seniors
through the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly
(PACE). This will be a huge step of faith for St. Paul’s, it
may even seem overwhelming to
some, but there can be no doubt it
is certainly true to the vision that
Bishop Robinson first conceived.
I invite you to participate by
supporting the Capital Campaign
with your gifts and pledges. In this
way Father Robinson’s vision,
which has always been to meet
the needs of seniors, will continue
to be a reality.

❦ MEMORIAL DAY GIVING ❦
What we do for ourselves dies with us - what we do for
others remains and is immortal.
Albert Pike (1809-1891)
As we approach the observance of Memorial Day, this quotation is thought provoking.
We think of those who have served in the armed forces of our country, and what they did for
others, and for us, by their service and sacrifice. We thank God for them.
We think of family members and friends who have gone to their heavenly reward, and many
times the strongest memories that we have of them are the things they did for others or
ourselves. We thank God for them.
We think of people who are living and celebrate the good that is done by their example of
giving to others through service and philanthropy. We thank God for them.
On this Memorial Day – let us thank God for them. And where it is appropriate, send a card,
a letter, some flowers, and/or make a Memorial or Tribute gift in their honor.

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN UPDATE
The Capital Campaign for the PACE program was
officially launched at the monthly meeting of LUV on
Thursday, April 19th. Presentations about the PACE
program were made by Cheryl Wilson, St. Paul’s CEO,
and by Dr. Dennis Erlich, a geriatric physician. Dr. Erlich
gave an impassioned presentation about the need for
PACE services in San Diego.
We have begun work with Sue Fornabai, Campaign
Counsel with Holliman Associates, who is currently
working with us to identify our leadership, our plan and
our timetable for the campaign.
We have received a pledge of $1 million as a matching
grant if we can raise another $2 million toward our total
goal of $3 million. We have also received two initial gifts
of $1,000 toward the campaign.
We are beginning Phase I of our campaign while we
continue to actively look for the right piece of property to
house the PACE program for the future. As soon as we
find that property, we will begin Phase II.
We ask for your continued prayers and support as we
move into an exciting future of additional services for a
frailest segment of our senior population to enhance
their quality of life, medical care, and support for them
to remain in the home of their choice.
