‘Tis the Season to be Giving

charitable giving
“As we reach the end of the year we all get preoccupied with holiday parties, making travel plans and buying gifts, but don’t overlook the importance of giving gifts— charitable contributions— while you can still claim the income tax deduction for 2013.  Before you get out the checkbook or fire up PayPal, you should review the basics of why, when, who and how,” says Liz Davidson in her recent article in Forbes magazine. The article goes on to say that “The “why” of giving is the ultimate motivation of any charitable gift should always be that you support the mission and vision of that particular charity.” (Read the entire article here).

So, what is the mission and vision of United Methodist Retirement Center (UMRC)?  Founded in 1909, we are a not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) corporation that has shared more than a century of compassion and commitment to serving the needs of older persons. UMRC is a place where life-enriching services are provided to people of all faiths and beliefs.  At Willson House Assisted Living our residents are treated with the dignity and respect they deserve. 

In 1985 the Willson House Child Development Center was added and is one of the first of its kind in the state of Oregon. It has been a place for generations to learn and grow together.  What a unique opportunity the intergenerational program is to both the children and older adults as they engage in special daily activities!  It’s truly a relationship to be treasured.

United Methodist Retirement Center is not a “home”; rather it IS home for our residents. Is this a mission and vision that you believe in?  If so, please click here and then use the donate button to give to the Willson House Benevolent Care Program. Your gift of support will help Willson House to continue to provide amazing care to the young and the young-at-heart.  Thank you for your generosity and we wish you and your family healthy, wealth and prosperity in 2014!
