Giving Tuesday

Help Our Garden Grow — Every Gift Doubled!

This Giving Tuesday (December 2, 2025), your gift will bloom twice as bright! Thanks to a generous donor, every dollar you give will be matched dollar for dollar — up to $5,000. That means your $50 gift becomes $100, your $250 becomes $500. Give now to double your impact!

Your donation will be used to create our new Therapeutic Garden Courtyard at the Leavitt Family Jewish Home.

A Garden That Heals and Inspires

We are transforming long-term care through the expansion of the Green House® model of small house care, so successfully adopted at our Sosin Center for Rehabilitation. Small, home-like households filled with warmth, dignity and connection. As part of our planned renovations to our New York unit we will make enhancements to the adjacent courtyard, bringing nature’s healing power to everyday life.

Residents will be able to:

  • Feel the sun and breeze on their faces
  • Garden, walk, enjoy activities, or simply sit in peaceful reflection
  • Share joyful visits with family and friends

Your Gift Will Make the Garden Bloom!

  • $5,000 – Name a Therapeutic Garden Pathway
  • $2,500 – Sponsors a Shaded Seating Area or Bench
  • $1,000 – Plant a Tree of Life — offering shade and renewal
  • $500 – Funds a Raised Garden Bed accessible to all residents
  • $250 – Add Color & Fragrance through Sensory flowers and herbs
  • $100 – Provide Garden Lights and Wind Chimes for calming ambiance
  • Any Amount – Help our Therapeutic Garden Courtyard grow!

Double Your Impact Today

Your Giving Tuesday gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000! That means twice the blooms, twice the smiles, twice the healing power of nature.

A Place to Bloom, A Place to Belong

Your generosity will help create a garden where our elders feel peace, joy, and belonging every day. Together, we’ll grow something beautiful – a lasting expression of love, dignity, and community.
