Learn About Fundraisers and Volunteerism


Annual Fund

The Annual Fund is your opportunity to make a difference. It was created to ensure the continued growth of essential services and programs.

Through the Annual Fund, we offer you the opportunity to give back to those seniors in our lives who have helped make us and the community better. Each contribution to OLW Annual Fund goes directly to support ongoing programs that provide critical support to our residents.

In this 2011-2012 year, we have specific projects we hope to achieve.

  • Four (4) 46-inch, flat-panel televisions with stand and portable DVD player. Cost: $7,000
  • A Sound system for Tuscany Hall. Cost: $2,500
