2025 Good Samaritan Appeal

Dear Friend,
As we enter this season of renewal, we are reminded of the incredible power that compassion and generosity hold in transforming the lives of those in need. At The Ridgewood at Shenango Valley, our mission is to provide meaning, richness of life and healthcare services for seniors, regardless of their financial situation. This commitment is made possible through the support of the Good Samaritan Fund.
The Good Samaritan Fund plays a crucial role in supporting benevolent care, offering essential resources and compassionate services that help maintain the dignity of residents facing financial hardship. Our work is made possible through the generosity of individuals like you, ensuring that all of our residents receive the care they deserve, no matter their circumstances.
As a nonprofit personal care residence, The Ridgewood at Shenango Valley is a collaborative effort between St. Paul’s Senior Living Community and UPMC. Last year alone, we provided $60,721 in benevolent and unfunded care, emphasizing the need for continued support. It is through the kindness of donors like you that we can continue offering this vital assistance.
This season of renewal presents an opportunity to nurture hope. Your generous donation will help us continue providing essential services to those who need them most. No gift is too small and every act of kindness makes a significant difference in the lives of our residents.
Together, we can sow the seeds of hope, watching them bloom into a brighter future for those we serve. Thank you for considering this opportunity to make a meaningful impact. We are deeply grateful for your compassion and support.
