Support Cross Keys Village residents, team members, and community programs by raising and distributing funds to enhance quality of care, provide financial assistance to residents, and support memory care education and staff development.
The Brethren Home Foundation’s recent giving is anchored by support for The Brethren Home Community, a retirement community serving older adults in New Oxford, Pennsylvania. Two large awards stand out in the grant record: $1,355,221 in 2023 and $732,429 in 2024, both directed to sustain services for elderly residents. That pattern fits the foundation’s stated purpose of supporting Cross Keys Village residents, team members, and community programs by raising and distributing funds for quality of care, financial assistance, memory care education, and staff development. The grant record also shows a smaller but consistent line of local community support. In both 2023 and 2024, the foundation awarded $10,000 to United Hook and Ladder for fire department and fire truck campaign needs. Taken together, the grants show a funder that combines large, institution-level support for senior residential care with narrower project funding for public safety in the same community. The foundation also makes program-related investments.
Eldercare and residential support are the foundation’s central focus. The largest recent grant, $1,355,221 in 2023, went to The Brethren Home Community to support a retirement community providing services to the elderly. A second large award in 2024, $732,429, repeated that support. Public safety is another visible area of giving. The foundation gave $10,000 in 2023 to United Hook and Ladder for the fire department and its fire truck campaign, then repeated the same amount in 2024 for the same purpose. Its stated priorities also include memory care and staff development. The existing program description identifies support for memory care education and team member development, along with community programs and financial assistance for residents. The active grant program, The Balinda Hunt Award for Nursing, points to nursing and workforce development.
The Brethren Home Foundation’s grant sizes are uneven, with a p25 of $10,000, a median of $371,214, and a p75 of $888,127. That spread reflects a structure that pairs large institutional support with smaller restricted grants. The recent record shows repeat giving to the same recipients across 2023 and 2024, which suggests ongoing support rather than one-time awards. The foundation is also organized to make program-related investments. Its listed active grant program, The Balinda Hunt Award for Nursing, is associated with Cross Keys Village / The Brethren Home Foundation and does not accept unsolicited requests.
