Giving

The Brethren Home Foundation: Offering a helping hand to others in our community.

Founded more than a century ago out of a desire to provide a helping hand to older adults, Cross Keys Village-The Brethren Home Community continues to place excellent care and service ahead of any other motive.

As a not-for-profit continuing care retirement community, we depend to a certain extent on gifts of time, talent, and resources from residents and friends in order to fulfill our mission of providing the highest possible levels of nursing care, rehabilitation services, personal care, and dynamic independent living lifestyles. This environment of giving and mutual support has imbued our community with a sense of caring and mutual support. One expression of this mutual support is the Brethren Home Foundation.

Incorporated in 1987 to solicit, receive, and administer tax-deductible gifts, grants, contributions, and bequests, the Foundation is one way—a central way—in which the people who live here, work here, and visit here can help ensure the continued success of our community.

We hope you’ll consider leaving your mark on our community by making a gift to the Brethren Home Foundation. Naturally, you may designate your gift toward resident care, spiritual life, employee scholarships, the beautification of buildings and grounds, or another purpose that’s especially meaningful to you. And all gifts are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
