Good Shepherd Communities Foundation 2024 Fall Golf Classic Forms
Good Shepherd Communities Foundation 2024 Fall Golf Classic
This year’s event will be held on the afternoon of Thursday, September 5th, at Traditions at the Glen in Johnson City, NY. A great time was had by all last year with a record turnout! Plan now to be at this year’s event before space runs out! Because you supported the Foundation in 2023, we were able to:
- Provide educational reimbursement for an employee who became an LPN. She couldn’t be happier to further her education to serve the elderly. She is a great asset to our organization, and the residents love her.
- Recognize employees for their hard work with themed events and holiday parties with gifts; remember each employee on their birthday with a gift card; host service award ceremonies to recognize our loyal staff.
- Subsidize residents who are having financial difficulty. They will continue to reside at Good Shepherd Communities, the place they know as home, with no worries.
- Recognize and reward employees by renovating employee break rooms at Good Shepherd Village at Endwell and Chase Memorial Nursing Home and replacing maintenance equipment through the Shepherd’s Mission Fund.
- Host multiple events, educational sessions, and activities for employees, residents, and their families at all three locations.
The benefits of joining us in this effort are great. Our senior population is one of our community’s greatest resources and for many years they have been the source of support and growth of local businesses. Now it is our turn to help them and ensure they are well cared for.
Thank you for your consideration of our sponsorship request. All sponsorship commitments should be returned by August 16th. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Tammie Boerner, Foundation Director, at 607-484-6076 or [email protected].

The Foundation’s annual giving program supports four different funds:
Living Care Fund
Residents are guaranteed a home for life with the promise they will receive the same quality residential and healthcare services, even if they encounter unforeseen financial hardship. This fund is a charitable fund that bridges the gap between the actual cost of care in the adult care and assisted living residences and an individual’s available resources. Many people choose to remember a loved one through a donation to the Living Care Fund. Memorial contributions to this fund are encouraged and appreciated.
Shepherd’s Mission Fund
Your gift to this fund enables us to anticipate and meet the needs of seniors through the development and operation of a broad range of innovative services and facilities. We will design and explore opportunities for growth, collaborative relationships and affiliations with other community members to enhance and enrich senior living and to adapt to the ever-changing environment.
Employee Recognition Fund
The Employee Recognition Fund serves several purposes. Many employees at Good Shepherd Communities cannot afford the high cost of education. This fund supports tuition reimbursement to help our valued team members grow as professionals and develop as people. This fund also supports employee recognition where we celebrate the dedication of our excellent staff and their commitment to Good Shepherd Communities and its residents. Finally, the Employee Recognition Fund has a history of providing emergency assistance to staff in times of need such as during the flood and to employees who have lost their possessions due to fire.
Unrestricted Funds
These are used for the area of most need within Good Shepherd Communities. Unrestricted gifts support the work of the Foundation. These gifts help to ensure that the Foundation will continue to grow its assets and investments, and will have the ability to respond to the needs of Good Shepherd Communities, Good Shepherd Fairview Home, and Good Shepherd Village at Endwell.
