The Auxiliary’s Annual Telethon is our primary fundraising event, organized by dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly to enhance the lives of our residents. Kicking off in early May and continuing through the summer months, this initiative has funded essential projects over the years, including comfortable armchairs for residents’ rooms, new mattresses and bed lifts, and the refurbishment of living rooms throughout the Lodge.

In addition to these essential projects, funding supports special extras that enrich our residents' experience, including the upkeep of the fish tanks, fresh flowers on Shabbat, an electric menorah, bingo winnings, thoughtful gifts for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and other special holidays, as well as complimentary haircuts for birthday celebrations.

Your generous donations are greatly appreciated and make a significant difference in the lives of our residents!

“Seeing the compassionate care residents receive motivated me to enrich their lives further. Our fundraising efforts provide vital extras that enhance their daily experiences.”

— Shelley Goldenberg, A Former Auxiliary President
