Vincent foundation supported the charitable needs of those residents living at providence mount st. Vincent who have outlived their life savings and rely on charitable support to continue to make the mount their home. These residents reside throughout all program areas including long term care 24-hour skilled nursing, assisted living and transitional care. More than 65% of skilled nursing residents and approximately 35% of all assisted living apartment residents have outlived all financial resources. Medicaid reimbursement through federal and state governments are insufficient to cover the costs of their care. Generous donations to the foundation help to fill this gap which exceeds $4 million annually. In 2024 more than $1.9 million in charitable support was provided to help ensure that no resident would ever fear eviction for lack of ability to pay, as occurs in for profit facilities. Of this charitable support, more than 25% was gifted in honor of the sisters of providence during this centennial year for providence mount st. Vincent. Additionally, the foundation provided more than $300,000 in funding for the majority of resident engagement programming through our wonderful life fund. This programming covers many activities including art classes, music, special events, field trips, spiritual care, wellness clinic, educational programming, intergenerational programming, and many other offerings to enhance the quality of life for all who make the mount their home.
