Think of giving not as a duty but as a privilege.
– John D. Rockefeller Jr.

In 2017, United Church Homes kicked off the largest fundraising campaign in the history of the organization with a $20 million comprehensive Campaign for Abundant Life at the rededication of the Fairhaven Community campus in Upper Sandusky, Ohio. The goal was to raise money that would support our mission to transform aging for the people we serve. This included donations to our residential and healthcare communities, affordable housing, pastoral care programs, The Ruth Frost Parker Center for Abundant Aging and to our endowments that would provide sustainability for our future.

In 2020, UCH received its largest single donation in history from long-time friends who made an estate gift of $17.5 million. This transformational gift nearly doubled our $20 million goal with two years left of fundraising. As a result, the Campaign Steering Committee decided to establish a revised goal of $45 million.

Gifts and pledges continued through the end of 2022 to completion of the 5-year effort and victory was made with a total raised of $47,406,780 to close out this historic campaign for United Church Homes.

Thank you to the generous individuals, corporations, churches and community partners who donated $5,000+ during this campaign. To see a listing of these donors, click here.
