Brookmeade Community Foundation Senior Living
Supporting the residents of The Baptist Home at Brookmeade
As we near the end of our lives, each day takes on a greater significance. For seniors living with Alzheimer’s and dementia, it is moments that matter.
At the Community at Brookmeade, we strive to make each day memorable and each moment count. Our 200 residents live in dignity and peace and each day brings friendship, respect and laughter.
Care at this level requires resources beyond what individual retirement savings and the government can provide. We need the support of our neighbors and the local business community.
Gifts and donations may be made by mail or directly on our website using PayPal.

In the year since the New Day program began, staff are seeing marked improvement in resident morale and behavior.
