38 Years of Gratitude And Local Impact in The Santa Ynez Valley, well beyond our campus.

The philanthropic spirit Atterdag Village of Solvang has been made possible because of another’s legacy. Since 1987, the rich tradition of giving from donors like you has played a pivotal role in helping low-income seniors in The Santa Ynez Valley. Every charitable gift strengthens our role and provides continued support for those in need.

Atterdag at Home Meals-on-Wheels. Imagine seniors across the Santa Ynez Valley eagerly awaiting a knock on the door, followed by a warm, nourishing meal (and maybe even a friendly chat). In 2024, you helped us deliver just over 25,000 meals to seniors aging in place at home in Solvang, Santa Ynez, Ballard and Los Olivos. It’s more than just food—it’s connection, comfort, and the knowledge that someone cares. That someone is you— you, directly though your generous donations, are the difference-makers.

Scholarships for Residents. Your generosity has provided local low-income seniors a safe place to call home and the much needed care required in their particular season of life. This year, our scholarship program made it possible for 8 qualifying low-income seniors to join our vibrant Atterdag community, finding not just a place to live, but a place to thrive. Thanks to you, their dreams of friendship, belonging, community and care have come true.

Caring Hands, Every Step of the Way. Your kindness was a lifeline for seniors needing skilled nursing support or rehab. Whether recovering from surgery or managing chronic conditions, twenty three seniors benefited from subsidized care that gave them strength and hope - It’s all thanks to your generous contributions to our Endowment Fund.

Heroes at Home. - Your continued support has allowed Atterdag Village to help local vulnerable seniors stay safe and secure in their own homes for longer. Our team of handymen, housekeepers, and caregivers have made homes safer by installing grab bars and safety ramps, and providing cleaning, and caregiving services. Your generosity literally helps keep our seniors on their feet and safe within their homes.

Scholarships That Keep on Giving. You didn’t just touch lives this year; you helped shape futures. With your support, our scholarships for staff pursuing nursing careers have empowered team members to chase their dreams. These incredible individuals are studying hard to return to the Santa Ynez Valley as skilled caregivers, ready to serve the very seniors they’ve grown to love. Your investment in their future is an investment in countless lives to come.

Thank You To Our Donors.

Because of you, we’ve been able to bring care, connection, and hope to seniors and their families in ways we never thought possible. Whether it’s a delivered meal, a safer home, skilled nursing care, or a “new lease on life,” you helped to make it happen.

From all of us here at Atterdag Village of Solvang, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Your kindness inspires everything we do.

We can’t wait to see what we’ll achieve together in 2025. With more seniors to serve, more dreams to fulfill, and continued support from you - our People Who Care Partners - we know this will be our best year yet.

A Single Act of Generosity. A Lifetime of Impact.
