Giving with Purpose
Enriching Lives and Community
Through donors’ heartfelt contributions and legacy gifts, critical support is provided where it’s needed most. These philanthropic opportunities are organized in order of priority, determined by the demonstrated need, and assist us in fulfilling our mission and vision.
Mission-Supporting Gifts
Unrestricted giving leads to unrestricted thinking. Unrestricted giving provides your community with flexibility to carry out important programs and services, improve the well-being of residents, support new and innovative initiatives, tackle unforeseen challenges, or address other pressing needs. When donors give without restrictions, it opens up endless possibilities!
Resident Assistance
Imagine the smile on the face of a neighbor or friend knowing they no longer have to worry about covering their expenses. The Resident Assistance Fund helps residents and villagers who have been good financial stewards yet have outlived their resources and can no longer fully afford the services or care they need. Resident Assistance helps cover the cost of fees/housing, meals, health insurance premiums, medical care, and other necessities for residents and villagers. PSL has never asked a resident or villager to leave due to an inability to pay. Resident Assistance is about compassion, instilling peace of mind, and knowing the community you’ve come to call home is here for you.
Health and Well-being Across the Continuum
(formerly known as Resident Enrichment)
Staying engaged and active physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually plays a significant role in determining the length and quality of our lives. This fund provides for innovative and best practice solutions to health and well-being needs. Offerings may include specialized exercise classes; stimulating social, cultural, art, and performance activities; lifelong learning educational classes; a comprehensive library; spiritual care; recreational, music, and art therapy; and much more. This fund also provides flexible support to address new or changing high-priority needs of residents.
Community Enhancement Fund
From cozy corners to vibrant gardens, welcoming physical environments positively affect residents’ health and well-being. Spaces that encourage connection and community promote the ability to thrive and live life fully. The Community Enhancement Fund is used to acquire items for indoor and outdoor spaces and can assist with prioritized capital projects and improvements. A community is more than a place; it is something we build together.
Team Member Assistance Fund
(formerly known as Caring Community Employee Hardship Fund)
Compassionate and dedicated team members sometimes experience temporary financial hardship due to an emergency or catastrophic event such as a medical emergency, fire, car accident, or unexpected funeral expenses for a loved one. The Team Member Assistance Fund provides confidential, one-time financial assistance based on demonstrated need. By uniting in times of crisis, this program seeks to alleviate the stress and burden associated with unexpected financial challenges, allowing team members to regain their footing and focus on what matters most: their well-being and the care of those they serve.
Scholarship Funds
Make a lasting impact by endowing a scholarship or contributing to an existing fund that supports team members who wish to further their education and advance their careers. Programs may include scholarships; financial support for conferences, workshops, and licensing or certification beyond minimum employment requirements; and individual or group training programs to grow knowledge and skills.
Affordable Housing and Supportive Services
Our affordable housing communities extend beyond shelter; they build communities where people can thrive, diminish feelings of isolation, and enhance stability. Residents benefit from supportive services and live with peace of mind. Gifts may assist in funding essential services like nutritional support,programs, transportation, and capital needs.
Planned & Other Giving Opportunities
Planned gifts require some planning and, often, help from your professional advisors. Unlike cash donations, they are typically made from assets in your estate rather than disposable income and come to fruition upon your death.
