For 40 years, Willow Valley Communities has been a recognized leader in creating forward-thinking senior living communities. We pride ourselves in being at the forefront of innovation to positively transform the way aging is viewed and experienced in our world.

Our Residents have come to expect award-winning buildings, inspiring programming, rich amenities, and a robust continuum of care. With the philanthropic support of many, we are expanding our ability to care for those living with cognitive decline through the creation of a groundbreaking Memory Center. 

We invite you to explore our plans for the Marlin and Doris Thomas Memory Center. With therapy-by-design, innovative programming, and wide-ranging impact, you will discover how it will help not just our community but also our neighbors in Lancaster County and beyond. 

This groundbreaking Center will change how we—and all involved in the caregiving discipline— assess, approach, treat, support, and research memory care needs. Our learnings and models will help this and future generations—both those with dementia and those caring for them—experience the most successful aging possible.

We hope you will join us on this journey because we know that, for many, This is Personal. 

Sincerely,
