Our Mission
To enhance through philanthropy and stewardship the physical, social, and spiritual well-being of the Residents of Saint Simeon’s and their families.
The Saint Simeon’s Foundation is dedicated to ethical fundraising as informed by the Vision, Mission, and Guiding Principles of the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) and their declaration of A Donor Bill of Rights.
Our History
Saint Simeon’s, and therefore the Saint Simeon’s Foundation, would not exist without the dream of Dr. Edward Eckel. Founded in 1960 as a non-profit, charitable organization, the goal was to create a retirement community where men and women of all faiths could live independently and with dignity.
Saint Simeon’s believes operating as a non-profit organization with a host of generous donors has enabled them to deliver more and better services with less cost to the residents. This is not-for-profit advantage, and the Saint Simeon’s difference.
