Rose Villa Foundation

In the early 1960s, Rose Villa Residents established the Rose Villa Foundation and began a tradition of generosity. Even before there was any need for it, they chose to make a safety-net promise to each other and to future Residents: that those who might outlive their resources through no fault of their own could remain as valued members in the community they had long called home. Well before there was any need for it, they donated and named the Foundation in their estate plans.

Today, thanks to generous volunteers and donations from Residents, Future Residents, Team Members, and friends, family and other supporters, the Rose Villa Foundation promise continues. 

Rose Villa Foundation is:

  • A 501(c)3 nonprofit, EIN 93-6023450, separate from but aligned with Rose Villa, Inc.
  • Provider of safety-net assistance and programs that benefit the Rose Villa community
  • Governed by a majority-Resident volunteer Board of Directors, managed by a professional director
  • Hundreds of individuals who give generously and plan bequests to ensure that current and future Rose Villa Residents can remain in their community if they face unexpected catastrophe or outlive their resources through no fault of their own. 

Giving

Our community embodies a generous philanthropic spirit! There are so many ways that neighbors come alongside one another to make a difference.

GIFT OF ASSETS
If left in your estate, some holdings and insurance policies are subject to income and other estate taxes. They may be poor assets to pass to loved ones, but excellent choices to use for a charitable estate gift. Using the "beneficiary designation" for your qualified retirement account or IRA, you can use excess funds to make a tax-savvy  and cost-effective charitable gift to Rose Villa Foundation.
