Supporting and Honoring Seniors
Wentworth Senior Living’s mission is:
To provide the seniors we serve with the support necessary to maintain their individual strengths and capacities; that they, along with their families and friends, have trust in our desire and ability to help them succeed; and that all members of our staff fully embrace the belief that they are greatly respected and appreciated for playing an important part in this effort.
Your financial contribution supports this mission, providing Wentworth Senior Living with stability and opportunities for growth. We are sustained by the generosity of local philanthropists whose donations have made support and residence possible for many Seacoast seniors.
There are several options for giving:
Planned Giving
A planned gift, or bequest, allows you to retain the use of your assets during your lifetime.
You can provide a sustainable future for WSL and its programs by listing our community in your will or revocable trust. You can also designate WSL as a beneficiary of your retirement plan, insurance policy, donor advised fund, or private foundation.
