Opportunities for Giving

General/Unrestricted Fund

Donations to this fund - which can be designated for the Benjamin Borden Health Center or Kendal at Lexington - allow the Board to use principal and income to support the highest priority, such as direct debt reduction, with its moderating effect on monthly fee increases or to help purchase a needed piece of equipment. The flexibility afforded by unrestricted funds, whether they come in the form of a gift, a memorial contribution, or bequest, allows the Board to apply the money exactly where it is needed most, whenever it is received.

Assistance for Residents

The Fellowship Fund serves residents of Kendal at Lexington who may experience financial reversals, out-live their resources, or have a one-time need.  This outreach has been identified both as an integral part of the Kendal mission and a top priority for charitable gifts.

Support for Staff

Staff Education Programs support Kendal's stated value to "foster a high quality work experience for employees, recognizing that our communities must be good places to work if they are to be good places to live."
