Dear Neighbors and Friends:
Thank you once again for reading this, the 54th Morningside Retirement and Health Services (MRHS) Annual Fund Appeal Letter. Morningside Gardens (MG) is classified as a Naturally Occurring Retirement Community (NORC) and MRHS serves only this constituency. We have two main objectives; to help frail elderly and other older adults stay in their own homes for as long as possible and to continue building our vibrant community.
Helping older adults takes many forms. We help find home health aides as they are needed. We provide families with professional advice about dealing with social, financial, or health problems. Volunteers may take residents to medical appointments. Our trained staff may be called on when cognitive impairment causes issues, and we work with MHHC Security in emergency or life threatening cases. We also work hard to prevent social isolation, visiting the housebound in their apartments and providing social and learning opportunities in our office space.
Building our multi-cultural community is important. We offer a wide variety of programs that stimulate your mind, protect your body, improve your skills, raise your spirits and offer lots of fun and friendship. Last year there were almost 9000 registrations for programs sponsored by MRHS ranging from Great Decisions (a discussion of world events) to Zumba (exercise) to movies and the Ice Cream Social. At MRHS computers are available, there is a free circulating library, and coffee, tea and snacks are out in our lounge daily.
Please contribute what you can afford. All that you give goes toward operating expenses. Last year it was $55,000 and we hope to increase that amount this year. Included with this letter is a Donation Formfor you to fill out and return to MRHS.
For comprehensive information about MRHS, you can go to our website: www.mrhsny.org. If you want to discuss your contribution or anything else, please write to me at Davidsonm_10027@yahoo.com.
Thank you for all that you do for MRHS.
