Honoring a Legacy of Care

The Clara D. Young Legacy Foundation was established to address a critical gap in our community's healthcare landscape. For many families, the challenge of memory care is not just emotional, but financial and physical. Our mission is to honor the legacy of Clara D. Young by providing quality, affordable, dignity-first memory care and respite support.

The Growing Need for Support

As our population ages, the demand for specialized memory services continues to outpace available resources. Families often face a difficult choice between high-cost private care or navigating complex systems without professional guidance. Current data indicates that caregivers provide billions of hours of unpaid labor annually, often at the expense of their own health and financial stability. Without affordable respite options, these families risk becoming disconnected from the very resources they need to thrive.

Our Strategic Vision

To meet this challenge, we are expanding our program reach to ensure no family has to navigate this journey in isolation. Your investment in this campaign supports:

Expanding our respite care hours to provide primary caregivers necessary relief.
Subsidizing memory care costs for low to moderate income families.
Developing educational resources that keep families connected to local medical and social services.
Maintaining a facility that prioritizes the dignity and safety of every resident.

Your Investment in Dignity

When you give to the Clara D. Young Legacy Foundation, your contribution ensures that high-quality care is not a luxury, but a standard available to all. Your support directly funds the professional staff and specialized programming required to maintain a safe, nurturing environment for those with memory loss.
