The Holmes Fund
Choosing to direct your donation to the Holmes Fund helps provide educational programming and service offerings to Covenant Woods residents as well as older adults in the surrounding area.
Covenant Woods Benevolent Funds
When you give to one of Covenant Woods’ benevolent funds, you can direct your gift to enhance resident services, create new and innovative programs, support employees with scholarships or assistance in times of crisis, or ensure no resident will ever be asked to leave his or her home at Covenant Woods due to financial hardship beyond their control.
Build your legacy through giving.
A legacy gift is an ongoing reflection of your values that can directly impact lives for generations to come. In a world where less than one percent of philanthropic dollars benefit organizations serving older adults, your gift can make a real difference while building your legacy and providing significant tax benefits.
