PSL's Resident Assistance Fund
PSL, as an organization, has never asked an older adult to leave their home because of an inability to pay due to financial hardship. The Resident Assistance Fund is a direct investment in this enduring mission and in the well-being of older adults who may be your friends, family members, or neighbors. Through this fund, compassion, dignity, and security remain at the heart of every community PSL serves.
Why the Foundation Selected the Resident Assistance Fund
This year, the Glen Meadows Foundation made the intentional decision to contribute half of its annual allocation to support the Resident Assistance Fund at Glen Meadows. Chair of the Foundation’s Board of Trustees, Kristi Sjoholm-Sierchio, stated, “It was important to me to show leadership on giving to the Resident Assistant Fund as there is no more important charitable cause to our Community.”
This meaningful commitment reflects a deep appreciation for the values that define the organization and the people it serves. It also underscores the belief that financial stability is essential to preserving peace of mind and continuity for residents, especially during times of unexpected challenge.
By supporting the Resident Assistance Fund, the Foundation affirms that caring for residents goes hand in hand with sustaining a compassionate, mission-driven community. The allocation made this year is more than a financial contribution—it is a statement of faith and stewardship. It reflects shared values rooted in service, responsibility, and Christian love.
Through generosity and thoughtful leadership, the Glen Meadows Foundation and Glen Meadows Retirement Community continue to invest in people, ensuring that no resident faces uncertainty alone.
As the Glen Meadows Foundation looks to the future, this commitment stands as a powerful reminder that when a community comes together in purpose, everyone benefits. Through the Resident Assistance Fund, the Foundation and Glen Meadows partnership continues to uphold its promise of dignity, security, and compassionate care for all.
