It all started with a bake sale.The small town of West Liberty had a dream of a home for elders that would allow them to age with purpose and dignity. The financing of one million dollars had the dream fading, but a women’s sewing circle refused to give up. They planned a bake sale that netted $2,232, and the dream was taking shape. Some of those same women lead a fund drive plan that raised over $300,000. This was done with no gift larger than $5000, a few experts said couldn’t be done. Seven years later the dream had become reality.
The legacy of Green Hills Community started with this purpose statement: |
“Our purpose is to meet the total needs – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual – of the older person, to offer a secure environment, a sense of dignity, and to help him/her retain their life style.”
What a beautiful legacy that a small group of people from a small town had a vision to care for elders and all their wellness needs. Their dream was simple – a ministry that allows elders to live in a community especially for them that is just like their home. These weren’t people that knew the health care business or elder housing either. Yet, they were progressive in their thinking, creating an environment of choice for elders in 1974 that aging services providers are trying to emulate today.
Today, Green Hills Community is an aging services provider that offers you the choices you want live life your way. For 40 years we have served elders in Logan and Champaign counties and we can continue that legacy because of your generosity.
