Capital Campaign Announces New Challenge Pledge

Brethren Village’s Capital Campaign titled “Upholding the Promise… Building for Tomorrow,” is thankful for the 332 donors who have made commitments totaling over $5.3 million toward our goal of $6.2 million campaign goal! This new $5.3 million milestone is just another step toward completing the campaign!

Recently, we were given a $50,000 campaign challenge pledge by a very generous donor for The Courtyards — our new skilled nursing facility — and the Welcome Center.

The donor offered $5,000 for each new or increased planned gift to Brethren Village up to $50,000. This is a great way for your planned gift to make an impact NOW!

If you are inclined to give to the campaign, but aren’t sure that you can make a current gift at this time, this new challenge could be a wonderful option. Spaces on our donor tile wall are still available, and qualifying planned gifts can count toward a naming opportunity for a loved one, your family or a friend!

You can help Brethren Village reach our goal by…
1. Remembering Brethren Village in your estate plans. Let us know about it!
2. Request information on Charitable Gift Annuities that would provide income to you for your lifetime.
3. Make a gift online at www.bv.org/capital

For more information on “Ways To Give,” naming opportunities or the donor recognition wall, please contact the Development Office (717) 581-4316.
