For nearly 35 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. We now intend to apply these qualities to creating a major new Memory Care Center at Willow Valley Communities.

For the last few years, we have been exploring how Willow Valley Communities could expand our ability to care for those living with cognitive disorders. Our Residents share our desire to make memory care an even greater priority within our community—and throughout our region.

By exploring this information, you will learn about our plans for a Memory Care Center featuring cutting-edge 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 far beyond. We will also share why we believe this project deserves the community’s financial support through the Willow Valley Communities Charitable Foundation’s very first capital campaign.

This groundbreaking center will change how we—and all involved in the discipline of caring for those with cognitive challenges— assess, treat, support, and research memory care issues. It 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 in making the Willow Valley Communities Memory Care Center a reality.

Sincerely,
