About Wesley Homes
Wesley Homes centers its giving on the mission and vision of Wesley communities and health services, with all four recent grants awarded as general operating support to related entities in Des Moines, Washington. The largest recent grant, $3,217,021, went to Wesley Homes Community Health Services, followed by $2,650,131 to Wesley Homes Foundation and $1,100,000 to Wesley Homes Pierce County. That pattern points to a funder that supports its own organizational network rather than outside programs, using flexible support to sustain services for older adults. The foundation’s existing program areas show how that support is used: aging and older-adult services, long-term care and continuing care, memory care, hospice and palliative care, wellness and fitness programming, education for residents and staff, capital projects, and benevolence. The grant record aligns with that structure, with all grants staying within the Wesley system and all recipients located in Washington. Wesley Homes operates through a community-foundation model that supports in-home care, memory care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and community well-being for older adults across its continuing care communities.
What Wesley Homes Funds
Wesley Homes funds the operating backbone of its affiliated senior-serving organizations, but it also directs flexible support into resident and staff programming. One example is the Employee Assistance Fund, which provides emergency financial assistance to employees in hardship and education grants for staff skills training. Another is the Greatest Need Fund, used for emergent needs and special projects such as Wesley University, fitness and music programs, memory care support, emergency response equipment, campus enhancements, and hospice support. Education and enrichment are also part of the foundation’s model. Wesley U offers free programming for residents and non-residents, with topics including arts, religion, and literature, plus partner-led courses. For people living with dementia, Music & Memory trains elder care professionals to build personalized playlists for residents and clients. In the resident-support area, the Circle of Concern benevolence fund provides financial help to qualifying residents who have exhausted their resources through no fault of their own.
How Wesley Homes Gives
The recent grant sizes are large and tightly clustered: the 25th percentile is $1,512,566, the median is $2,650,131, and the 75th percentile is $2,933,576. That profile suggests a small number of substantial operating grants rather than a broad set of smaller awards. The recent record also shows repeat support to the same affiliated organizations across 2024 and 2025, with general operating support appearing in both years. Wesley Homes does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. The foundation’s active grant programs also note that several channels accept unsolicited requests.
